Mar 09, 2021     6-4 & 6-5: VS assembly - (3.0 hours)       Category: 6: Vertical Stab
Got the dimpling of the skeleton done and all the rivets set. The stupid rudder connection angles...I had to buck most of the rivets since the angle is to tight to get the squeezer on it. Not a big deal but I ended drilling out several to redo. Just when I thought it looked good I realized the are two more holes between the angles that get rivets. I couldn't fit the bucking bar between the angles to get them. Drill them out again and redo it. Final product looked good. Squeezed the remainder of the spar and it looks great. Went ahead and set the remaining rivets for the skeleton except the last three in the middle rib at the front spar. I'll need the double offset for those; that's a task for tomorrow.

I'm pretty much stopping here on the VS until the tech counselor visits.
