Baggage floor install

Tonight I installed the baggage floors, final sized some nutplate holes, and then clecoed the floors to the substructure. before I started, I spent time carefully cleaning out the under-floor area. Using a damp cloth I wiped all the surfaces, then vacuumed everything with a brush-head fitting.

The next step is to rivet these floors down using a variety of rivets. I’ll be making good use of the pneumatic pulled-rivet squeezer, along with my hand squeezer, and rivet gun.
