Title: QB Fuse
Started going through the plans vs what was accomplished in the QB Fuse. The floor boards were temporarily pop-riveted in place, so I removed them to gain access below. Found some random unmarked aluminum pieces taped to the Steps, so had to search the plans to find them. Turns out they are shims used below the baggage door. Now I have to figure how to rivet these shims in place. I was hoping to leave the baggage door in place to give the Fuse some rigidity until the tail cone was attached, but I probably will have to cut it out. It looks like enlisting some help and using the Empennage Bucking Bar will be needed to get in the tight area by the side skin and baggage floor ribs. I was looking at installing the Steps. They have been primed and seem ready for paint. I will probably decide to Powder Coat them. Also, the plans call for AN3-20A bolts to pin the steps in place. I could not find these bolts in any bag or even on the inventory list. I'll look again but in any event I placed an order for them.
