Aft gear brace assembly. I followed steps 1 to 10 as per the plans. When it came time at steps 12 & 13 to rivet the aft gear brace assembly to the centre bottom skin I found, and you will find the F-01416B L & R seat rib angles sitting right over a dimple hole making it impossible to back rivet that hole. I had to remove the rivets from the F-01416B's and back rivet the aft gear assembly to the skin and then complete riveting the seat ribs F-01416B.
Van's informed me that their engineers will be revisiting this so it does not happen again. Hope this helps.
