Hey, I'm a new RV-8 builder working on the flaps and I wondered what to do about joining the upper and lower skins inboard from the inboard rib. Do you just continue the rivet line into the 3 or 4 inches where there are no pilot holes?

Leave 'em open for now. You'll be trimming to meet up with the fuselage when you mount the wings later.
