INSTALLING THE AILERON BRACKETS
Assemble the W-413 and W-414 Aileron bracket assemblies as shown on DWG 10A. Install them on the rear spar by lining up the matched holes, drilling, deburring, and riveting.

I did this very carefully. The outbaord/inbord facing rivets were quite easy to set with the squeezer. The fore/aft rivets however werequite challenging. The squeezer could only reach the first three rivets. The remaining needed to be bucked. Given they were so long I needed pressure circa 80psi on the rivet gun. Three of the Four rivets worked very well. The last rivet wil need to be removed and redone.
