Made the cuts in the aft end of the longerons

To make this a little easier, I taped both longerons to a piece of 3/5 inch plywood so they would sit flat for these cuts. After making the marks for the aft most cuts, I laid the F-714 aft deck on the longerons to mark the inmost cut. Then I used my jigsaw with some oil to make the cuts. I stopped just shy of the most inward cuts, then made several cuts through the middle of the piece to be cut out to free up that piece. then I finished off the cuts with a round file to get that nice rounded look.
