Brief Description:  Rivet Aft Canopy Rails

The aft mount for the canopy tracks is over the 705 bulkhead, and so the nutplate is on the fuselage, not the canopy rail. I used a squeezer for one lug and back riveted the other lug to mount this nutplate. Installed the canopy rails with cleco in every other hole then riveted with the gun and tungsten bar. This went very well. Did all the shorter rivets in the forward part of the rail, saving the longer rivets for next session. Got both rails mostly riveted.
