I'm at the point of drilling the rivet holes for the HS-407 tip rib. If I maintain the nominal spacing (1.25") I can get 5 rivets per side. This puts one rivet in the flange area forward of the notch. I can also space the last 3 rivets 7/8" apart and get 2 into the forward area for a total of 6. The plans don't seem to indicate how many to put there. I want the skin to conform to the rib shape.
