Brief Description: Another Milestone - Top Skin Riveted
Yet another milestone - the top skin is rivited on:-)
I solo bucked most using the large EFIS hole and the ASI/Altimeter removed. The bucking bar shown in this post was very handy for these rivets
Due to wiring and the risk of poorly bucked top gear tower/longeron rivets my inspector agreed to the use of Cherry CR3214-4-04 strctural rivets from Genuine Aircraft Hardware (see VAF).
I used the normal pop rivet tool and they came out pretty flush. A good structural pop rivet is surely better than a poor driven rivet?
