Getting ready to rivet the aft, center, and fore fuselage sections

All parts are primed and now ready to re-assemble.

I'm going to rivet the F-715 seat ribs to the center section and this got me to consider installing other parts before joining the sections.

Any issues with riveting the F-623 corner rib to the center section skin before joining the sections? Any other parts that can be (partially) installed before joining the fuselage sections?
 
If you rivet the corner rib (I did), just watch out that you don't set the rivets that need to be done after the side skins and attach straps.
 
Yes, I was not going to rivet the row that rivets the F-770 side skin to the corner rib. I'm going to put tape over the holes, hopefully this will prevent me from riveting them. :)
