Brief Description:  Riveted the F-814E Seat Ramp Supports

Riveted the F-814E Seat Ramp Supports to the F-814A L&R Forward Inboard Seat Ribs.

Riveted and bolted the F-815A L&R Forward Outboard Seat Rib and the F-815B L&R Aft Outboard Seat Ribs to the F-806B Rear Spar Attachment Bulkhead. The bolts were torqued to 25 in-lbs and marked with Torque seal.

Riveted the F-815A L&R Forward Outboard Seat Rib to the F-826 and F-827 mid bottom skins. Tried to back rivet the right side and learned a painful lesson. Eight of the last nine rivets backed out slightly due to the upward curve of the skin. These rivets needed to be replaced. This meant having to drill up from the bottom, a very uncomfortable position. Beside the drilling, the remaining stems don't easily tap out of the holes. I had to carefully drill the stems from the top to get them removed. All of these holes were re-dimpled, drilled to #30 and re-riveted with Oops rivets using a bucking bar. The repair is acceptable.
