During initial assembly of tailcone, I noticed that F-1012B was not 

pre-punched for the skin.  The plans shows both A &  B as pre-punched.  

It will be very easy to match drill the bulkhead using the skin punches 

and relying on the A bulkhead for alignment.  But I am curious whether 

others have encountered the same thing.



I also noticed a very small tear in the thin flange around the central 

hole in bulkhead F-1010.  It appears to have resulted from the forming 

of the flange.  It would seem to be subject to enlarging if the area is 

stressed.  Would a stop hole be called for?  Or grinding the tear out?  

Or a new part?  I will be going to Vans with this.
