Fuselage Top Continued

I finished shaping the fuselage top this evening.  During the day I struggled through some theoretical weight and balance calculations for gross weight and maximum aft cg location based on the numbers found in the operations manual and some of my own estimates.  The former was not so positive but the latter was a lot less bleak.  I attribute the disparity to the fact that the data provided in the manual is for the fiberglass version and not the wooden version.

My next step is cleaning and then some more scarf joints.

Number of hours:  1.3
Total hours:  150.6
