you can make a cover here but it needs to be folded at the edges and riveted to the sheet metal at the sides (where the skins attach),not by drilling holes into the tops of the tubes

Re: Avionics platform under forward deck
Thanks Tony. That is exactly what I meant. I assume that you could even cover the entire area if you either were not concerned about rudder access, or provided for a removable panel to allow for that access.
Will you be riveting this to the frame. I think I see where you have drilled and dimpled. Did you make this panel or get it from SPA?

Avionics platform under forward deck
Has anyone installed a platform under the forward deck, attached to the frame of the fuselage. I need a place to install some of my avionics modules and other such items, like batteries and EMS module.
Any instruction and/or advise will be appreciated.
