More riveting moments on the elevators

Finishing off riveting the E-905 left root rib to the upper and lower skins. No issues here as I was able to use the pneumatic squeezer which makes life so much easier.



All done.



I've left these two AN470AD3-4's as neither the manual squeezer nor the pneumatic squeezer fit in the space. Need to have a think and see what tools my friends have that I could borrow.



Need to get in there with the bucking bar sight unseen and try to hit the shop head flat.


This side's a little easier to see.


See those two little rivets down the end on the right? Well, got to get them somehow too.


One cleco; one rivet. Now to see if I hit it straight.


Bugger - didn't take the 'after' shot.

I got it though.
