I have a question on the very first step of the RV-9 empennage.
The directions say to cleco the HS Spar halves together with the spar doubler plate and then match drill all the pre-punched 1/8" holes. It seems straight forward. But there are three 1/8" holes in the spar doubler plate that aren't in each of the spar halves. Why is that, and should I drill those out creating brand new holes in the spar halves?
