Installed baggage floor
I riveted in the baggage compartment side panels and riveted down the left side baggage floor. It’s not an easy task to lean in over the side and deal with nut plates, flush rivets, and pop rivets. The results look great, though. The compartment for the strobe power supply works exactly as planned. I re-installed the power supply and secured the compartment cover.

Warning! This pop riveter is a piece of dung. The top handle has been loose for a while, and I didn’t do anything about it. Well, the darn thing (trying not to swear to keep it family-friendly) slipped out of the handle and put a nice dent in the bottom skin behind the baggage bulkhead. I’m hoping that some tricky massaging with the rivet gun will mostly fix it. At least the dent is on the bottom of the plane.
