| Brief Description: |
Riveted the lower inspar rib then the Rear Spar |
|
|
Ok here was a more difficult piece of riveting. The rear spar rivets are easy as the available access is good. However, the front spar rivets are much harder to access. I had difficulty witth one of the edge rivets and had to remove it. Very difficult to drill out as the rivet is very close to the flanges on both sides. I ended up very uncomfortable with this rivet so I added a further two rivets, making 5 on the flange rather than the planned 3. I am very comfortable this is never going to let go. I then squeezed all the remaining rivets on the rear spar. No problems. Vertical Stabiliser Finished...... |
