Closing the wings, riveting

I will have something keeping them from flying forward. Maybe a small piece of netting over the opening. -
I always assumed you would roll the lower skin back and have one person buck, and the other drive. Other than the 3rd and 4th rib from the tip, I can... -
I have another reason to put it on a access panel cover. If I put an access panel on the 2nd bay in from the tip, I think I can rivet the wings closed... -
I hadn't thought about a sock, but that sounds good as well. If you want a tube, just roll one. Use a thin flat plate of something - aluminum, very...Leave a comment:

Yeah. I thought there might be some spec for it. -
I flew 90 hours in a T-34C a long time ago. Bonanza aerodynamics with a 2 seat tandem layout. Meant for 220 hp and cruising at 160-180. It had a Turboprop... -
The plans call for oversized (an4 bolt) thimbles on the flap drive, and you need them because smaller ones bind against the actuating arm. Actually the...Leave a comment:

Bolts used in controls, including those with bushings
Seems like a dumb question, but I can't find the answer anywhere.
