Brief Description: More riveting of left wing top skin
My youngest son, Mark, I home from Auburn University this summer. He has a full schedule, serving as a youth minister at Turin United Methodist Church and as an alumni chaperone on the church choir trip to Alaska. I managed to corral him for an evening to help buck rivets. We continued back riveting the left top inboard wing skin. Later in the evening, I went back over the remaining holes in the top wing skin to slightly countersink each one (so that the rivets fit better). Before, we were countersinking each hole just before placing the rivet. I decided that I can do all of the final countersinking myself before enlisting helpers, to save their time.
