Boy did I have some great help from N, T, and B this evening. We were able to get the rudder skeleton riveted and then the skin riveted on. We each took a part in the riveting process. One of us took clecoes out, another reamed the holes, another place the rivet in the hole and the fourth used the pop rivet gun to pull the rivet.
At the end of the day we had the VS and the rudder complete. A great accomplishment for beginners of aircraft construction.
Time: 2.75 hrs.
