I'm working on the vertical stab and just clecoed on the skin. I'm having a hard time with the point of the lower nose rib fitting into the wedge of the skin (if that makes sense). It's very tight and the flange doesn't want to lay flat against the skin. I took it apart and bent the flange back a few degrees, which helped, but still not stellar. There is one hole that needs to be match drilled at the very point of the rib, so I'm sure that'll help. I think I can clamp it flat, but I don't know if that will be too much pressure on the rivet. This is my first skin, so I'm not sure what is normal.
