Brief Description:  Rivet F-821-1 top forward skin-5

Goal for today was to finish the rivets in the baggage bulkhead. Nancy came out to run the gun, while I got inside the fuse to buck. We got all of the rivets finished in the bulkhead—one rivet gave us fits—drilled out twice before getting it set. Next, I moved back to the f/w where I had a number of rivets which clenched over with the squeezer. I drilled out seven rivets and set new ones using the gun and bar. Then, I moved to the F-8104 forward skin support ribs—these sorta wrap around the roll bar and tie the roll bar to the skin. I had previously riveted them to the skin. I match drilled them to the roll bar—used my right angle drill for the bottom holes. Cleaned up the chips between the rib and roll bar, dipped some LP4-3 pop rivets in primer and installed.
