Brief Description:  Rivetted RH stabiliator skin & structure

...and cleco'd on RH stab skin ready for rivetting.

Very satisfying couple of days.

With the skin on, the central rib on each side could be fitted. Because it's not possible to get to the nose rib side of the structure, blind ("pop") rivets are used here - and it's a bit of a tight spot to get the rivetter in place. No real problem, though.
