Today, the project returned to the rudder. The decision to avoid any structural modifications to the rudder was made (rudder trim will be handled with springs on the pedals) and thus, I returned to finish the rudder riveting. Stiffeners and shear clips were riveted and my first experience back riveting was had. I love back riveting! Efficient, fast, and nearly perfect everytime! The next steps involve joining the trailing edges and thus, detail will be required to acheive a straight and true edge.
