Got back from 4th of July trip early enough to get some airplane work done. Got the aft deck cleco'd in place and proceeded with the rivets. I was able to squeeze a handful of them but most had to be bucked with the double offset set.
Then install some of the bolt hardware. Temporary installed the bolts in the tail attach doubler so that I could match drill the bolts for the tail attach brackets. Those were easy to match drill with the 12” #30 bit but final drilling to #12 was tight. I was just able to get the right alignment with my drill laying in the aft deck.
Proceeded to install the bolts. I contemplated installing the vertical bolts with the nuts on top so they would be easier to inspect, but Van's clearly shows them nuts down so I redid them.
Felt good to get that done. Ready to install the top skin.
