Hints
If you intend to place antennas under the rear seats, it will be handy to have access panels/covers installed. Included is a template for fabricating the doubler plate that will fit between the seat ribs.

- The F-1026 Lower Baggage Door Seal Channel needs bending so the two flanges are parallel and fit flush on a surface. Look into the top opening to make sure the rear flange sits flush on the F-1006A bulkhead.

- Step 1-4 say "Standard Kit" only, but needs completion on quick build kits as well

- Step 1: Reminder: the center two nutplates on the rear flange are MS21051-L08 (asymmetric, the two rivets are on the same side).
- Step 2: The most forward 426AD3-3.5 rivet can only be done with the back-riveting technique. Consider getting a long back rivet set.
- Step 3: The AN426AD3-4.5 rivets that attach the F-1026 Lower Baggage Door Seal Channel are too short, consider using longer ones. The rivets are hard to buck but you can insert a 5/8" x 1" x 4" (long, slim) tungsten bar with the angled end towards the rivet.

Note: "left" is referring to airplane's direction of flight, not looking at the corrugated bulkhead as you close out the tailcone
- Step 7: about 15 x 5/32 black clecos (for #8 screw holes) are needed, e.g. part no #20-103 at Pan American Tools.
