April 7, 2006 - Rivet Baggage Area Floors

It's finally time to rivet the baggage area floors.  First I clecoed the left floor to the baggage rib, F-706 bulkhead, F-705 bulkhead and side panel. 
The baggage area floor also took a bunch of different rivets:  pop-rivets, flush 3-3.5s, and nutplates.  The nutplates are time-consuming but not overly difficult.  I've done so many of them by now it's no big deal. 
Both floors riveted on.  The dark rectangle on the left is the door to my "secret compartment" underneath the right baggage area floor.  I'm going to keep a quarter or two of oil and some tools in there.
