Hi everyone,
I'm assembling the center fuselage section and I'm about to start dimpling and countersinking as required.
I've read the plans and the instructions but I don't see anywhere if I have to dimple or countersink F-704H side plates. These are the plates going between the F-704 bulkhead and the side skins.
I believe that these 2 plates have to be countersunk (only for flush rivets) because of the thickness of the metal, however I still have a doubt.
