1082- Tailcone- p.10-15 step 8 & p.10-16 step 1

Tailcone- 4 hrs 48 mins (Tailcone 51:41, Empennage 227:13, Total 248:09)
Rivet count: 0 (Total 3,686)

Scuffing and Countersinking are complete! Three hours of scuffing was quite the test of patience and ensuring I did everything completely. The first hour was from a few nights ago, but I was too tired and didn't post the video. After the scuffing was all complete, we countersunk the AEX tie-down, a stop brace, and the two longerons. We taped off a few holes on the longerons to make sure they were left untouched. Easy work!

Tomorrow, we'll finish up with all the dimpling, and if the weather is good, we'll start cleaning parts in preparation for priming!!! -M
