Brief Description:  Riveted aileron brackets and started flaps

Riveted the aileron brackets. The three longest rivets on the inboard brackets had to be bucked as the pneumatic squeezer could not be set far enough open to rivet these.

Match drilled the flap spars to the ribs, and the ribs to the bottom skins. We had to fabricate shims to fill the gap between the aft flanges of the FL-705 ribs and the bottom skins.
