170 horizontal rebuild

This is a 12000 hour Cessna 182, the cracks are found in the corner of the web, hard to see. Once the crack was found the aircraft was grounded, no ferry permit allowed. We spent three long days and travel to get the job done

 After removing the tail we found that an earlier replacement of the tail bulkheads with a later model 180 bulkhead, probably because of the plane going over on its back, was not done very well…….

  It all starts with rivets and time.

Ground loop, not a bad one but still took some time
