Brief Description:  Completion of the HS

Finally, after all the inventory, and the arrival of some spare 470-AD4-7 and 8 rivets, dad and I turned our attention back to the HS. By using the rivet removal #40 drill for the #30 sized rivets that are holding the HS attachment brackets in place, we were able to drill out the center of the rivets. 9 rivets hold each bracket, so 18 rivets were removed very successfully. Then, new rivets were placed and this time, squeezed to perfection. This was all done due to the over bucking of the original rivets. Now, I can feel much more comfortable that the HS will not detach from the aircraft! The HS is now complete, and it's off to complete the rudder!
