Brief Description:  Rivet top cowl skin

Finally riveted the top cowling skin with some help. This is a miserable task as someone needs to get on their back inside under the dash and hold the bucking bar to set many of these rivets. Also, the canopy attach, release, and pivots are all in the way from setting these rivets and need to be removed and reattached after these rivets are set. No fun. Once it's riveted, you need to seal the inside with tank sealant to keep water or exhaust from entering the cabin, even less fun than setting the rivets but it's done!
