Because of the pandemic, my wife and I have chosen that I be a 100% solo builder in my home shop for now.
Finally I finished Section 29, and am wondering whether Section 30 (aft fuselage attachment) can be postponed. It's easier to deal with a smaller structure in my home shop than the mated sections.
It looks like: all of 31 (fuel system); almost all of 33 (rudder & brake systems, except p. 33-11); and all of 35 (upper forward fuselage), can be accomplished in advance of 30.
That last paragraph probably could be fine-tuned -- all I am asking of the forum is whether I am missing something larger. Some sections, like 11 (empennage attach) are deferrable, I'm just asking if anyone has considered a route as set forth above and thinks there would be cause for regret. Don't mean to sound too worried, but usually it's when I think I know what I'm doing that I make mistakes.
Thanks,
Tom
