Brief Description:  Riveted Flap Hinge

This sesssion was dedicated to riveting the flap hinges on the left and right wing. Started by taking the hinges apart and cleaning and priming them (actually did that the day prior). The flaps had been aligned and the hinge holes drilled previously so all I had to do was cleco on the hinges (every other hole), riveted using the pneumatic squeezer, move the clecos and rivet those holes.

Switched to the other wing and repeated. Put the flaps on the wings and inserted the hinge pin and they look and work great! Note - there is a small portion of the hinge (the part that attaches to the bottom outboard wing skin - about 6 rivets) that I will not rivet until I'm ready to close up the wing.
