Fred,
It was a piece like the one under the door sill. We bonded it to the
fuselage then covered it in 2 layers of bid. The goal is that the
filler tube is not in direct contact with the skin. I cannot answer why
this has kept the outside skin straight but I have never seen a
problem. Others that have gone through the Florida build center have
said the same.
Regards,
Jeff
