Manual Reference:  7-9
Brief Description:  Rivet right wing bottom skins

More riveting, but not much more. Did one line of rivets where the two skins overlap, four of the next line where there's just the two skins (no rib) and also the rear spar of that same bay. Called it quits after that since neither one of us had much enthusiasm. No matter: we're in no rush. We had some leather fabric samples arrive from Classic Aero yesterday and have been deliberating over colours. We've eventually decided that we'll go for Light Gray surround with Pacific Blue on the inside. Headrests, arm rests and stick boots will all be Light Gray as well, though it isn't that light if you ask me. I'm also going to ask Luke about making some additional 'booster' cushions since Jackie and I are on the shorter side of tall :-) I'm hoping to be able to order these seats at the end of October, maybe a little sooner depending on finances. With a 14 week lead time, they should fall in nicely with ordering the fuselage kit (with the Tom Clark fastback mod, probably). We'll see...
