Feb 24, 2017     Finished riveting aft bulkhead - (1 hour) Category: Empennage
Slow going this evening because I was checking and doublechecking EVERYTHING against the instructions -- size of rivets, correct nutplates and correct pop rivetrs (some weird stainless rivet is used on the nutplate).

The only departure from plans is the called out AD4-4 rivets for two locations (i think it was on the tie-down bracket) are too short so I switched to some larger ones I had from the RV-7A build and they were perfect. (Or maybe the original callout was 4-5. I forget. In any case, I went up one size).

I got a smiley on rivet but there was no way I was going to drill it out and really mess things up.
