Hi Pine,

I assume you're building the standard kit???  If so, you'll want to do all
the firwall work, the nosegear tunnel, the aft bulkhead, and the elevator
bobweight support (at least) before you install the belly pan.  (It's a
little difficult for me to come up with much more because I'm looking from
the perspective of a SFB kit, but I'm sure there are other items that can
be handled before you need to install the wing center section.  Other Std
kit builders will undoubtedly have more than a suggestion or two...)

Just think about all the stuff that's going to be installed aft of the
seatback, and if you have it around to put it in before that component is
installed, you'd be way ahead of the game to get it done before the center
section goes on.  That includes things like antennae and anything else you
can think of.  Just my 2c.
