Top skins and nose skin is in place drilled to A5 with strips and plates in place as well as L angles rear of strips and connecting I/b gear box rib and adj. nose ribs. (I should shim these where they attach to the skins?) I cut out excess nose skin, will trim at some point in the future. Getting ready to tear down and debur. I am now struggling with the question as what I can rivet without causing myself future rivet removal adventures. For instance, the top skins do not get riveted due to the seat installation. Is it ok to rivet the bottom skin to the ribs (not the Zee)? Anyone have any thoughts? (TD 601 HD)
