Primer day!
We had quite a few parts to prime, so this took most of a day between scuffing with Prekote and applying the primer:
 |
| Fuselage side skin parts ready to scuff and prime |
 |
| Lots of smaller parts to prime, from various sections (mostly section 29) |
After many hours of work, the results were pretty good:
 |
| Primed parts (longerons, floors, cover, mid-cabin decks, etc.) laying on the fuselage |
 |
| Primed forward side skins |
 |
| Primed mid-fuselage side skins |
 |
| Checking for primer defects |
 |
| Primed small parts |
I also took the opportunity to touch up on the primer of the side angles I had trimmed for access before:
 |
| Trimmed firewall side angle corner ready for primer touch-up |
 |
| Touched-up firewall side angle corner |
Once this cures, on to riveting!
Time lapse:
Total fuselage side skin time: 92.8h
