I think I made my first potentially expensive mistake...
Not sure how to post pictures, but I'll see if I can explain.
Short version. I get fore and aft confused on the rear spar, and put the countersunk rivets on the wrong side.
Fortunately I have just clekoed in the rear spar, no rivets yet.
Can I fix this? Or am I looking at replacing the rear spar and doubler paint? Even if I drill out the four rivets that are in backwards I would wind up with countersink holes on both sides..
Guess I'll call Vans on Monday.
Thoughts?
Thanks,
-Dan
