Default Ailerons build sequence change.

There is one nut plate in the aileron build that is in the way of setting a nose rib rivet. I had to de-rivet the plate to set rib rivet and found that riveting the plate back on after was quite easy.
Did anyone else find this to be the case?

I had the same issue... I managed to get it done without having to remove and reinstall the nutplate but wished I had waited to install it. Hindsight...always 20/20.

I think we had a sticky in the 12 forum for stuff like this so other folks down the line wouldn't have to go through that. It might be a good idea for the 14 forum as well.
