HS-409 rivets

[SvingenB]

I have asked Van's about this, but haven't received any answer yet. When the HS-409 is to be riveted to the spars, which way do the rivets go. I can find no specifications on this, although I would assume they shall be entered from aft to fwd, like the rivets on the hinges.

Thanks

Svin,

That's how I did mine, based on someone else's stab--manufactuer head aft, shop head forward (with the exception of the four flush rivets at 1 3/8", which require flush heads forward, as noted on 3a).
