Composite Tolerance

I am having trouble understanding composite tolerance, especially when it comes to a bolt hole pattern like this. I am wondering how you would dimension these true positions. Here's my idea using legacy dimensioning:

Level and translate to A, rotate to B, and report the position of 1 hole (any hole?...lets say the 12'O'Clock hole) and give it a .001 tolerance. Then, would I stay leveled to A&B, translate to the hole that I just reported on (12'O'Clock hole), and report the positions of the rest of the holes with a .0005 tolerance?

Thanks so much...I prefer to use legacy...

Also, the lower frame should only have 1 datum. As written, the FCF is basically just repeating itself, with a tighter tolerance on the lower frame.

NinjaBadger is correct, it is perfectly valid for the lower segment's DRF to contain all three datums, it's just the way each segment behaves that changes. There is an example in ASME Y14.5 2018 - fig 10-43 (page 222)
