Completed spars preparation and attach angle riveting. Section 13 is fully completed Spent 6 hours
Upper Firewall
Finished riveting the upper firewall in place. Completed Page 29A-03 except step 7 that requires a bit of Proseal. Will complete the step when I’ll be doin some more work on the fuel tank.
Wings stand

Flaperons completed
Completed flaperons except attaching hinges (very last step). While drilling the counterbalance managed to enlarge skin holes. Decided to add 4 more rivets into each counterbalance to compensate for the screw-up. My next RV will be so much better! 🙂 …
