An aircraft fuselage body is constructed of an upper body section having a curved cross-section configuration and a lower body section having a curved cross-section configuration. The upper body section and the lower body section are joined together to form an aircraft fuselage body by splice straps that are secured, end to end along interior surfaces of the upper body section and the lower body section. The aircraft fuselage body being constructed of an upper body section and a lower body section enables installation of systems separately into the upper body section and the lower body section prior to the upper body section and lower body section being joined together.
