Aft Fuselage Dimpling & Priming (Aft Fuselage)
4.1 Hours

I spent the bulk of the time in the shop today priming and dimpling the parts of the aft fuselage, including the tail wheel mount, which is steel. I sanded it down as best I could and then heavily primed it.

Then, I cleco'd everything together for riveting. I realized, belatedly, that I needed to set a few rivets on the F-712 bulkhead while it is detached from the rest of the assembly, so I'll need to take the aft part of this thing apart once more.
