The QB fuselage comes with the Fwd Fuse topskin (L-1071) already attached to the rib subassembly. I'd like to keep access to this area while running wires and adding parts.

Does it make sense to drill out the rivets on the topskin, remove it, install subassembly and reinstall topskin when further along?

Electronics are just being ordered now. I can do my cuts on subpanels since I'm pretty close to final layout in Autocad.

Thoughts appreciated.

Thanks,
Tom

Keep the entire deck off, not just the top skin. You can finish the
canopy and doors and install the engine with the entire deck off. You
will not be able to install the windshield or engine cowling.

Amen brother. Makes the wiring and panel works a bunch easier. I did not pull the top skin as the work on the Q/B is sooo good that I did not want to disrupt it's great appearance
