Rivet tailcone attach

Bolted logerons together.
 

Riveted the tailcone on. Nothing particularly challenging.  Got both sides, and around the curved part by myself, but needed a rivet partner to get the bottom skin.

Luckily Daniel Schoning who is just starting a RV-7 (kit supposed to arrive on Tuesday) was available on Saturday, so he helped rivet for about an hour.

 

No pictures sorry.

Tail & Fuselage are now joined!
