I am about to put in the nut plates on 10-20. Why is there one nut plate with one rivet an AN426AD-3-4, while the other rivet is a CCR-264s-3-2

well the reason that I asked is because I did not think that it would be hard to squeeze. And I wondered if there was a special reason for the pop rivet.
It was not even a head scratcher for me. I squeezed it with any issues. Of course you have to have a long enough die on the inside or you will bend the longeron. I just use the longest squeezer die I have and then put a drilled out piece of aluminum between the die and the yoke to make the die "longer".
Simple.
I'm scratching my head trying to figure when the 2nd to last nut plate going forward along the longeron is installed... And I saw this blind rivet question again. FYI, if you have the right yoke this rivet is easy to squeeze with a hand or pneumatic squeezer.
It's all about the tool...
