July 1, 2005 - F704 Bulkhead

It's rivet time.  First I riveted the cover supports and bulkhead stiffener (on the far side).  Then I riveted the bulkhead sides.  It was mostly done with AN470-4-5s.  The riveting went very well for some reason.  There were no smiles; no rivets had to be drilled out.  I think I found the perfect pressure for the 4 rivets and my 2 gun:  68psi.  I also used blue tape on the rivet set.
