Brief Description: Install #12 Rib Clips, Diagonal Brace, & Tip Bow
|
|
Section 34 was already done (by mistake) earlier in the project. The diagonal brace had also be located, but not drilled or riveted. To begin today, I drilled, deburred, and riveted the forward rivet on the diagonal brace. Then the tip bow was fitted in place (not much fitting to do), then clamped in place, drilled, clecoed, and riveted. Then the aft rivet of the diagonal brace was drilled and riveted. Then the methacrylate adhesive was applied as per plans. Finally, the aft end on the tip bow was trimmed to fit flush with the outboard machined rib. I did notice one issue after I had riveted the tip bow in place: in the process of installing the tip bow, I had inadvertantly pushed the aft end of the outboard tail rib inboard so that the center rib and tail rib formed a small bow outward toward the tip bow. With some working, I was able to take most of the bow out, but it is an issue to watch for on the right wing.
