Tailcone

Been pretty busy with family stuff, home improvement and work over the last three weeks. But Ellen and I have managed to get some riveting done on the tailcone. Ellen does an awesome job running the rivet gun!

During this time I also fabricated and fitted a spacer for the tailwheel aft flange (see the May 7 entry below).

When the vertical stab is fitted, two bolts will be drilled through the bulkhead, spacer and VS spar.
