Brief Description:  Assemble flaps

Began riveting the flaps. Top skins on first and are pretty easy to rivet on since the bottom skin is not in the way. Once the top is on, the bottom skin is riveted to the spar only then you final drill the nose skin and pull rivet the nose skin to the nose ribs. Next you skip the pull rivets attaching the bottom skin and glue or double side tape the trailing edges to the skins. Seems out of order but the bottom skin is attached to the ribs with pull rivets later.

The trailing edge was attached with Pro Seal and set aside to dry and I can double flush back rivet it and attach the bottoom skin to the ribs with pul rivets. Started skinning the right flap while the Pro Seal dries on the left side.
