Began the attachment of the Fwd Fuse ribs to the Firewall. 1st clecoed and match drilled everything in common, then |
|
dissassembled, deburred (edges and holes) dimpled appropriate places, and primed the ribs, then began to rivet the nutplates |
|
on and then the braces to the ribs and the nose gear attachment, The nose gear tension bracket gets 58 AN470-4 rivets! I put |
|
the Manufactured head on the part that will be visible in the cabin, but this makes it nearly impossible to get access to the |
|
470-4-6 rivets that are the forward most of the series, theres' no way I can see to get even a double offset rivet set on them, I |
|
guess I could reverse this one row and put the manufactured head on the opposite side, but i'd rather not. I posted on Matronics |
|
to see if someone had a suggestion. |
