2 hrs. mostly on connecting the center and rear fuselage.

Spent a good amount of time lifting and angling to get the sections properly lined up with the right angle between them.

And the connection is made!  It will be a bit tricky to get a manual riveter in between ribs to connect them, but it's do-able.

Since my fuselage is an earlier rev there is a single line of rivets connecting the skins.  I've been informed that for mine I needed to ream out the holes to 4mm.  Here I've started that reaming process.

Half done!  Next half tomorrow.
