October 16th Update - Upper FWD Fuselage

Since the last update I have made substantial progress in section 35 - upper forward fuselage.  Much of this time was spent doing the usual prep of parts.   In the last few days I have completed the subpanel and am now working on preparation for riveting the upper forward skin.   I've also fabricated the pushrods for the canopy eject mechanism.  I don't plan to install the full mechanism but I will have the structure in place should I (or a future owner) decide to install the final part in the panel.  I also think having the structure there will make it easier in the future to remove the canopy for maintenance.
