Wing Fabric Rivet Holes Drilled


The holes for fabric rivets in the top and bottom wing rib caps were drilled with a 1/8" (#30 actually) drill.  The locations were duplicated from previous wing and are detailed  in the March 26, 2017 and April 2, 2017 Blog entries.  We also drilled 1/4" drain holes in the bottom inboard trailing edge of the wing.  Nine drain holes were drilled, each was located 1/2 inch from edge of rib cap, and 1/2 inch from front side of trailing-edge.  Hours: 3
