Hi all,
I'm sure there is a fix for this, but I'm not exactly sure how to do it.
What you are looking at in the pic below is the rear spar. The row of rivets is holding the aft end of the wing rib to the rear spar.

This is the first wing I built, and I didn't realize that I need to leave one rivet out in each rib for the aileron and flap seals. So, I had to drill it out. No matter how I tried, I could not find the center of the rivet to drill and ended up with the figure 8 hole shown in the pic.
Do they make an oops rivet for the AN470AD4-X rivets? I've searched the forums here and only find information about the AN426AD3- oops rivets.
I need a few AN470AD4-X rivets for two other holes also; they are nice and round, just enlarged. I'm thinking for the double hole in the pic I can drill it out for an oops rivet, and then maybe add a little plate under the manufactured head?
