Dimpled passenger floor pans. MANY thanks to friend and fellow RV-10
builder, Mike Jimenez, who recommended only installing the pesky floor pans
once – not in and out, due to them being very difficult to insert/remove. I also enlarged the forward openings slightly
based on his recommendation. Used a

Spent the rest of the work session priming my final
pieces remaining. The only metal
remaining are the wing fairings.
Everything else is primed and ready to go!
