1.5 hrs. riveting the right rear top skin.

First I checked for any twist in the fuselage by measuring at one of the jig cross-braces in the center fuselage and then under the rear fuselage.  It was difficult to get a steady measurement because even the slightest movement caused the digital level readout to jump around a bit.  But, the steadiest measurement I could get showed it to be within about .1 to .3 degrees center to rear.

Satisfied by that I started riveting the skin on.

With the exception of the center line of rivets, holes that need upsizing and countersunk rivets, they're all done.  Hope to finish those all tomorrow.
