Number of Hours: 2.00
Manual Reference: 6-b-3-8
Brief Description: Fitting access door

To get things to lay down flat I plan to use flush rivets. Here I test the concept by placing 5 tack rivets and installing all the screws. Both frame and skin get dimpled separately then tack riveted in place. All screws are installed and the ones that won't thread are reamed out with a .220 reamer. All screws are tightened.
