That looks like it makes life much easier. I see you're flying so
obviously it hasn't affected the structure,
Is there any rule when you substitute a panel for a bonded structure in
terms of fasteners per distance.
I still haven't installed the bulkhead and so have the opportunity to
modify it on the bench as it were. I suppose that I could simply make a
single panel incorporan the D panel instead of the two that you have.
Thanks thats helpful
