Brief Description:	Riveting the RH elevator skeleton. Or not...
I decided that a few minutes to rivet the elevator spar to the inboard rib would be in order. Silly me! What a mess I made of riveting in the awkward angle between the two parts. OK, it's virtually the same trechnique as the LH elevator, and that went fine - but not today! The first rivet was set very poorly, so cue a careful 30 minutes drilling that out to try again. Then each of the 4 rivets was set progressively worse, although I convinced myself that the first three were OK. The fourth is disgusting and entirely unacceptable, so I've given up for the night - and next time I'll do what I should have done in the first place. Drill them all out, and do it properly. Pppphh - Hubris, aluminium is thy handmaiden.
