Aug 04, 2021     Section 28 MISTAKE - (10 hours)       Category: Fuselage
After I realized in section 29 that I had put the cover plates on wrong (the picture is very difficult to tell).

This required me to drill out about 30 rivets and then reset the cover plate. Not a big deal but sure would have been nice to know this ahead of time.

I hope this post helps someone avoid this mistake in their own build. Turns out this is a very common mistake and a lot of builders (on Van's recommendation) leave the mistake alone.
