Brief Description:  Wing Inspection Covers

One area that I didn't do on the wings was install the nutplates for the 3 inspection covers that are on the bottom of each wing. Since I'm in a holding pattern on my fuse awaiting a shipment of 250 3/32" cleco's I decided to knock those out.

-I drilled out the rivet holes for #40 (3/32) on each wing (16 per inspection hole and 3 holes per wing).
-Drilled out #19 the screw holes for the 8 nutplate locations on each hole.
-Deburred the above.
-Dimpled the 3/32 holes in the wing skin and dimpled the nutplates themselves to accept the skin dimples.
-Dimpled screw holes.
-Riveted all of the nutplates onto the right wing (ran out of time to finsih the left wing-next session).

Good progress.
