Steve,
John had it partially correct, we do install the baggage bulkhead in the
lower section and temporarily install the top to mark the location of the D
section. We have a mold that we use to make a slpash of a flange that is
bonded in the top half along the previously marked position. Using flange
sections described in the previous posting sounds very doable as well.
