Brief Description:  Rivet bottom inboard wing skin (left wing)

The final push on the inboard skin and it was done. I pretty much did all the remaining rivets myself since I was able to reach most of them one way or another. I took a some photos inside the bays we did last night and decided to drive a couple of rivets a little extra and replace on altogether. Jackie helped me with those three. We then cleco'd the outboard skin in place and have come up with an initial plan of attack for it. I re-checked the pitot tube/bellcrank situation and I'm no longer sure that I'll need to add the adel clamp to hold it clear. I think I'll leave it for now and check that again at a future date; I have access through the, er, access panel (!), so it shouldn't be a huge drama. Another week or so and we'll probably have this wing done :-)
