Brief Description:  Aft skin - riveting

Except for the overlapping joint of the two aft fuselage skins and a very few on the longeron itself, the 3/32" rivets were completed previously. So when Gordon stopped by to discuss his fuel tank repairs, and he volunteered to buck some rivets there was a good opportunity that couldn't be missed.

We completed the left side, longeron aft section and overlap with aft skin. Then worked on a few of the right side but this needs some careful work to get the dimples to seat in a couple of holes. Some of the bulkhead flanges need a little review before placing the final rivets.

The 1/8" rivets around the rear window perimeter are moving to the top of the ToDo list as a result of this progress.
