Brief Description:  Final Turtledeck Riveting

Ken came back for the final session. We back riveted the remaining rivets in the turtle deck and for the stiffeners Ken shot from outside with a flush set and I bucked from inside. After Ken left I used the squeezer to set the rivets in the 706 bulkhead to the center rib. Then I crawled back in the hole and used cherry max rivets to secure the bracket on aft end of the rib to the 707 bulkhead and the bracket I made to support the extra J-channel in the aft fuselage for the extended canopy track. Turtledeck is now completely riveted.
