Brief Description:  Empennage deck priming/riveting

Primed underside of F-714 aft deck (empennage attach deck) and the spacers F-710C, F-711E, and angle F-711D. Used Rustoleum gray primer 7582 gray primer, sprayed thin, dried assisted with mild heat from model airplane Monokote heat gun. Riveted aft deck, all but the -6 and -8 AN470AD4 rivets, with manual squeezer. Used LP4-4 and -3 pull rivets in "corners" near F-709 rather than puzzle for hours how to get squeezer or bucking bars on them. [Images 1 and 2, acquired 29 April 2012.] Did have to buck the 2 AD4-9 rivets that tie F-711D to the vertical bars on F-711. Access was easy and they drove true.
