I'm on page 9-14, step 5. This requires lifting a corner of the bottom elevator skin to allow "access" to the back of the front spar. The skin is not attached to the front spar outboard of the outermost rib IAW the plans. But this just doesn't seem to leave enough room without folding back and creasing the skin.
I've tried to maneuver 3 different yokes into place without luck (though not without making me cringe
).
Don't know how I'd get a hand with a bucking bar in there. I can barely get my flat palm between the skin and the spar. Granted, my hands are a tad larger than average.
So, Great Gurus, how'd y'all do it? Is there an acceptable blind rivet to use?
Question already submitted to Van's, but I know y'all tend to be faster.![Big grin :D :D](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
Thanks!
