I need some help deciding if this rivet is good enough, or if I should drill it out and replace it. This is the W-413PP inboard aileron hinge bracket, using AN470AD4-11 rivets. The shop heads are a bit small, but the 4-11 rivet was a bit short to start with, although that's what the plans said to use.
Is this head too deformed to provide the proper strength, or is it okay given the thickness of the material here?
Thanks for your input,
Rob
