For some unkown reason I countersunk the AD3 rivet holes on the rear bottom skin on my rv-3. This skin is .025 which is too thin to be countersunk. I already have the side skin in place so i really really dont want to remove the bottom skin. Im not concerned about the reduced tensile load capability (the bottom skin sees verry little)..its more the shear load capability im concerned about. Also, are these holes going to be more succeptable to stress risers?
