I got to the hangar early with plans to knock out the installation of the seat bottoms.<\/p>\n<p>Before getting the seat bottom in place, I had a few open items. I installed the F-705H Spacer and the blind rivets above it. The rivets are supposed to be solid, but it&#8217;s just easier to go with blind rivets. I should have gotten these pieces installed much earlier. This was just an embarrassing oversight on my part. This is a good lesson that before you close out anything&#8211;it&#8217;s important to triple check everything.<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/rv7aircraftlog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/UNADJUSTEDNONRAW_thumb_5203.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-7213\" src=\"http:\/\/rv7aircraftlog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/UNADJUSTEDNONRAW_thumb_5203-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" srcset=\"http:\/\/rv7aircraftlog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/UNADJUSTEDNONRAW_thumb_5203.jpg 1024w, http:\/\/rv7aircraftlog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/UNADJUSTEDNONRAW_thumb_5203-300x225.jpg 300w, http:\/\/rv7aircraftlog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/UNADJUSTEDNONRAW_thumb_5203-768x576.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Here&#8217;s something that didn&#8217;t go right!
