Brief Description:  Complete Vertical Stabilizer

Bill Penney came over this afternoon to help me finish riveting the Vertical Stabilizer which was all ready to go. First we riveted the forward spar and rib with him shooting the rivets and me bucking the rivets. After that we cleco'd on the rear spar and used the pneumatic squeezer for most of the rest of the rivets around the edge. Only ended with one bad rivet because I let the bucking bar slip - I'll fix that tomorrow. Just before Bill left he put in the final rivet (for now) on the Vertical Stab.
