I put in waaay too many rivets. After spending much of the evening attaching the lower longeron angles beneath the fuselage, I gave up in disgust after I realized I needed to drill out about 30 rivets. When the instructions say "attach" do not listen... read way ahead and make surr ssomething else doesnt attach later.

drilling out rivetss isnt a big deal, the holes dont get any bigger and when you can finally attach, there is no degradation of strength. It is absolutely frustrating though.

The lower longerons are only riveted after the front sides are in place and all of the angles are installed.

Now it is OK to rivet, but I didnt go too far forward, and there are a few other marked areas, too
