Brief Description:  Rivet on Canopy Decks 2

It took a while to get all the rivets in. There were lots of different bucking bars needed to fit under the canopy decks and shape the rivet heads. The little brackets I added earlier for the static tube were a little in the way, but no real problem. They all went in fine.

The rivets at the seat bulkhead were done. So then I put in the canopy latch plates and finished riveting.

I also finished riveting the bulkhead doubler. In photo 3 below you can see the tight spot for the shop heads of the side skin rivets. This is why I did the skin first and this doubler second.
