Brief Description: Riveted aft deck and passenger footwells
Jim Weed came over tonight and brought over his RV-9A tail kit order form. He is getting his shop in order, buying tools and getting ready to start on his plane! It is all very exciting. Tonight, we riveted the aft deck onto the fuselage. Then, we drilled, dimpled and back-riveted the passenger footwells onto the forward center cockpit floorboard. Next, we started on the aft left and right floorboards, drilling on the stiffeners. Jim and I then discussed the finer points of edge deburring so that he can get a good start on his project once the tail kit is delivered.
