Hi All,
Working on my RV-14 tailcone. Regarding part F-01479 (.040 thick) Aft Bottom Skin. This part is rounded along the rivet lines. Flush-head rivets (AN426AD3-X) are used on this part.
My question is this: When dimpling, wouldn't the process flatten the skin in the dimpled area? Wouldn't this cause flat areas beyond the diameter of the rivet head?
