We're at the point in the plans that calls for riveting the aft top skin on the tail cone. Upon further reflection and research, I think we're going to defer until later for the ease of access when it comes time to run wire(s). (We did go ahead and install the static ports and lines.)
But while it's on my mind, I have a couple of questions:
What technique did you use? Back rivet with one of the monster bucking bars on the outside? Or the "traditional" route of rivet gun on the outside, bucking bar on the inside?
How did you protect the bottom of the tail cone, both inside and out, with someone on the inside?
Did anyone wait until the tail cone and fuse were joined?
Thanks.
