Guys,
I need some advise here:
The pop rivet turned to be absolutely hollow ,
the ball and the pin who supposed to hold it
from inside are completely torn out by the rivet
gun (seems like uncontrolable process with
this kind of rivets). We aware to the fact that
this os defenitely reduces the rivet strenght ,
but how bad is it? May this be acceptable at
this specific place ? Moreover , there in an
open hole in that place , how bad is that?
The location it happened is the plastic that leads
the cable for the rudder control. Here some pictures.
