Brief Description:  Finished Vertical Stabilizer

Today I finally finished up with the vertical stabilizer by squeezing all of the rivets around the edges of the top and bottom ribs and the rear spar. I mainly used my 3 inch squeezer yoke but had to use the longeron and 4 inch no hole yoke on a few of the rivets. I also had to buck a few of the rivets by the middle bracket as space was too limited to use the squeezer. I will post a few pics on the next entry to illustrate since I am limited to 3 pics per entry. I also used blind rivets for the VS-707 rib ends to rear spar as per instructions since there is no way to buck or squeeze a rivet in these holes.
