I have quickbuild wings, which I have been working on and closed up (last bottom skin) last week. Well I was going to install the alierons tonight but realized I hadn't installed the W-724 Aileron gap fairings yet. The plans call for AN-470 rivets. Can I use blind rivets to install the gap fairing to the wing spar?? There is know way I'm going to get in there and buck rivets now!
Yes. No problem, since it's not a structural issue. I bucked the ones I could reach and pulled all the rest. (The Nine drawings tell you you can use blind rivets.)
