Hello,



I am working on the "simple" step of joining the rear fuselage bottom and

end skin, 6F1-1 and 6F1-2 together, and 6F1-1 is 4 mm too short (2220 versus

2224mm). Not a big deal, except for that the two pieces are supposed to

overlap 20 mm for a 10 mm rivet edge distance, and the overall length is

supposed to be 2544, and I am only getting the 2540 with the 20 mm overlap.

I have contacted the factory and am awaiting their response as well. I see

my options as:

1. Buy material and make the part myself or order from factory. The smaller

piece 6F1-2 I cannot make longer as it would make the stabilizer mounts too

far apart or else comprimise the rivet edge distance.

2. Overlap 16 mm with an 8 mm edge distance; the longerons also span the

seam.

3. Leave it 4 mm short (not sure of problems later on with this).



Any thoughts or options?

Thanks!
