I spent about an hour on the fuselage. First we finished drilling the side skin extrusions into the nose skin, then we trimmed and drilled into place the upper ("Z") length that runs along the nose skin.

It turns out that the best way to approach the placement is to drill the aft most hole, then have a help hold the piece AND provide a buttress on the outside while you drill from the inside.

Also one of our EAA chapter members held a project visit today for their very nice looking 5151. Metal really dominates building so seeing how a wood project goes together was refreshing.
