Brief Description:  Mounted left aileron; pitot mast plate riveting

Used the Dremel to open the aileron pushrod opening on the left wing about as much as needed on the right wing.

Mounted the aileron and set up the pushrod length with the gauge. Made spacers and used gold clecos to put the alignment tool on the end of the wing.

Order from GAHCo came in Tues night! The "nutplate" rivets I got to finish up the pitot mast rivets were really weak. Stems pulled out all the way rather than broke off. Used CS4-4 for the skin to spar rivets instead. Ratio of solid rivets to blind for all the holes in the pitot mast area is high enough that the weak "nutplate" rivets won't matter much.
