Other than that, it looks like a good start!
I would double check that statement. I was looking at the CAD model off the AM website last night and that is how it is assembled. I did a double take too, but Solidworks says it's within the allowable 38".

Actually, I'm somewhat curious how accurate the model is, because the depth is only 26.5". We haven't started cutting ours yet, so I don't know if that what you get when you go widebody, but I'm kinda curious...
