Brief Description:  Rivet 13: Cargo rib flanges to 706

First thing I decided to rivet was the aft carbo ribs to the F706 bulkhead. It was difficult getting in position under the fuselage and bucking the rivets. I only messed up one hole with a clinched rivet. Drilling it out made the hole bigger, so I put an AN3 bolt in this hole. I tried a fat rivet but it clinched. And I considered a Cherry Max rivet, but the AN bolt just seems better since the hole was really too big for a rivet.
