Section 25 – FWD Mid Fuse Bulkheads – Complete – 16 Hours

I know it has been a long while since I made an update. I was enjoying building instead of blogging so this parts neglected. Well, as I write this, I am in Section 29 so I have a little bit to catch up on with this build.

In mid August, the Fuselage section arrive which meant, of course, a few hours spent on inventory. This kit section seemed to have a lot more smaller parts. My shelves quickly filled up with blue PVC covered aluminum parts. I knew, and it turned out to be true, that finding a particular part will be difficult.

Section 25 mostly consisted of preparing the two main spar sections which eventually envelope the wing spare when they are attached. That seems so far away though.

The gold pieces are anodized aluminum. Much of the structure is riveted by the factory before I even see those parts.

The two main spare sections plus a third spar, used to attach the rear part of the wing, have various pieces riveted and attached along with some nut-late attachments to the spar.

At the end of this section, I had 3 spar sections that will finally come together at the beginning of Section 29.
