Riveting the left horizontal stabilizer
6.0 hours

Starting the right horizontal stabilizer after riveting the left (Full size) I don't have any pix of the riveting. Not much to see. I got all the rivets into the left stabilizer. Had to drill out a few here and there because the gun would slip and the rivet wouldn't be all the way in the dimple. I started to do a few slow hits before cranking the gun up full, and that took care of that. |

Nose ribs riveted into the Right horizontal stabilizer, starting the forward spar riveting (Full size) This is where I stopped. I got the nose ribs into the skin. I had more trouble this time than the first which is kind of strange. Must have been tired. |
