Feb 28, 2011     Prep fuselage for wing attach - (1.0 hour)       Category: Fuselage
With the assistance of my friend Jim, I leveled the fuselage longitudinally and laterally. We added a couple of shims, and got it within 0.1 degree in both axes. Close enough for me.

Next, I removed the comm antenna baseplates from inside the belly skin so they won't get damaged when we tap the drift pins through the wing spar.

Next, I mic'ed the aft spar attach bolts and prepped some of the tools I'll need on Wednesday, which will be Wing-Hanging Day.

Finally, I pondered some solutions to a slight mistake I made last night when I was creating the flap hinge pin keepers. More later.
