Fortunately there doesn't seem to be a "golden rivet" that, if missed, will cause us to fall out of the sky!

I am still baffled over those two. When I get time I am going back over old photos (I took a lot of em) and see if they are missing back then or not.

I went back in time, to 2011 to be exact, and those rivets were certainly there! Obviously I did not drill them out, so maybe crawling around in the tail does shear them off. Regardless, it is something that should be looked at next time you have the tailcone open.
