Started working on the F-751 and F-652 corrugated baggage bulkheads

I started by clecoing the bottom corrugated bulkhead to the F-706 bulkhead. This piece is easy because the holes to be drilled into the F-706 bulkhead on each side are pre-drilled. BUT, the top corrugated bulkhead isn't predrilled. Which makes drilling all the nutplates holes pretty tough, since you have to somehow hold the top bulkhead in place to drill the nutplate holes. Forget that! I removed the bottom bulkhead and took both bulkheads over to the work bench. If you're going to put a new door on the barn, you build the door first!
