That was a lot more rivets than I thought 🙂
Rear spar passenger side complete
Rear spar
Cleaned up all of the junk and riveted half of the rear spar. Almost ready to skin the bottom
Rear spar fit and cortec
Drilled out the spar holes and prepped the parts for cortec, applied it and it’s not ready for riveting.
Drilling out rivets
I have these brackets on the wrong side for the new door design. I did what I saw in Homebuilt help in this case even though I know better. As Jon says all the time “CHECK YOUR PLANS”.
These brackets really need to be powder coated, so I’m thinking of buying a coater and doing it myself.
Also got the nuts on top of the nose gear spring. Doesn’t make sense to adjust the tention here until the engine is mounted so I left it as a TODO item.
Wing rib riveting
Riveted all of the ribs except the inboard.
Not sure why these holes don’t line up, maybe I have the one from the left wing?
