My mom was in town for my Aunt Colleen’s birthday, so I only got a few hours in the hangar today.

I secured the aileron nose ribs to the counterbalance with a blind rivets. IMG_7168_2

I installed the aileron leading edge skin with clecos.

I riveted the nose skin to the nose ribs. I had to drill out one rivet.

I riveted the inboard and outboard reinforcement plates to the aileron spar.

Lastly, I riveted a nutplate to the spar. I had to countersink the doubler plate before installing the flush rivets.IMG_7181
