RV10; I am a newboy; we have been building the vertical surface for a couple of weeks and going well so far, but just about to do some early riveting.
If you look at page 6-4, figure 4, the lower rear spar rivets are all specified as AN426AD4-7. But some go through rudder brackets and some do not; ie different depths of material. Why is that? I would have expected 2 different specs. Is it because the thickness of the bracket holes is quite small compared with the total?
I am quite happy with what it says, but I would feel more comfortable if I fully understood why! Any help would be appreciated.
