Hello group ,I am seeing some light at the end of  the tunnel .Today I fitted and drilled the top middle skin to the fuselage .  Question : when installing the L angles inside the top middle skin ,does the L  angle slide between the skin and bulkhead at the rear or does it only butt  up to it .    Wade  Jones    South Texas

 It is a little hard to tell but I  believe the L's overlap the bulkhead at the rear of the baggage compartment AND  the tubular hoop. Page 7 of the rev 2.2 photo guide 6-B-21C says "The front of  the L angles are behind the tube frame 6B21-2". Another clue is that they have  you lay out the rivet lines between rivets on the bulkhead and hoop (page 6 of  the photo guide). And if you look closely at the side view on 6-B-21 in the  plans you will see dashed lines for the L's extending into the  bulkhead.

BTW: I think that if  you look closely at the photo at the top of page 9 of the 6-B-21C rev 2.2 photo  guide you can see that the L goes inside the lip of the bulkhead, not between  the skin and the lip. I think you will only see this in the high resolution  picture in the CD version of the guide, not the lower resolution ones that you  can download from the Zenith web site.

  

 If you don't have the  CD version I can send you a few  outtakes.

Wade, I cut and trimmed mine so that the flange  touching the skin extends between the skin and the bulkhead and the same at the  tube. I like for any "overlap" on a stiffener to disappear into the joint rather  than looking like it was slapped on as an afterthought. Probably doesn't make a  big difference either way.
