Rivet Center Section Skin

With Debbie's help, I have finished riveting the center section belly skin. Looks pretty good from this angle. We only messed up 4 rivets which were promptly drilled out and replaced.





With that finished, the next step is fluting and drilling the last seat ribs (outside ribs). Fluting is the process of creating small kinks in metal in order to cause a bend in the material. Here is one rib.



And here is the opposite side installed.
