Hey Charles I think we are pretty far along the way with what we have.

I pretty much finished stringing the top and then I went along and put a stringer between all the existing stringer locations to stiffen things up. I went along with a hack saw blade to make a slice and then cut a notch with a 1/8 grout bit. the 1/8 stringer fits nice and snug in the notch. This is the same thing I did when I blew up Gillows outlines to make a 100" long F-16 (that's a yard stick in front of the F-16). For the hatch I moved the end from f-12 to F-11 since it doesn't need to be so long. I just made my self an f-11-A to end the hatch. For the sides of the hatch I egg crated two pieces of lite ply into the bulk heads with a little gap between them so I can cut it out after it is sheeted. I also installed some triangle stock to lock it all in place. As for f-5A&B the front of the hatch, it didn't fit so well and I need to do a little more grinding to get them flush with the outside of the fuse. when that is done I can start with some sheeting.
