Two hours priming session for all the big parts of the rear fuselage.

Before beginning the priming, I prepared some small parts (the second light support...) and among them was the pitch servo support bracket. The bracket gets installed behind the rear fuselage foremost bulkhead (behind the luggage area).
The plans are not exactly depicting what I have. After having verified that my parts were all correctly assembled I decided that I would have to adapt teh bracket.
On the picture, the bracket is unpainted, there will be a row of rivets on the upper part (those are already installed on the rib, I'll have to drill them out). On the lower part, the flange will lie on the lower skin, so I'll have to drill some holes to rivet the skin and flange together.



First I drilled ou the rivets on the rib, and drilled the lower flange. Having all cleacoed to the skin, I backdrilled the skin and bracket. Then everything got deburred, dimpled and sanded.
I'm very happy I did all this before riveting the fuselage, this would have been very interesting with all the parts already assembled.

Sanding of the rear fuselage parts, next operation is priming.

I finished the dimpling of the rear fuselage skins. On the side skins I did not forget to dimple the hole for screw that will maintain the rudder cables clamps. The rudder cables will exit the fuselage via the oblong hole in the skin.

After the center fuse, I did the dimpling on the rear fuselage. The upper rivet line is done, the lower one remains to be done as it is unreachable with the squeezer.
