Hi All,
I am wokring on left wing for my RV7A. The tie down bracket was not sitting properly when I was trying to drill through the W701-L-1 skin. I ended up drilling a hole that was too high. Then when i realized my mistake, i drilled the proper hole to see what i will get. Now I have a figure 8. The buttom hole ofcourse is the correct one. Can I salvage this by maybe riveting a small patch over it? Or do i have to now replace the skin? I am not sure how to attach an image to this message but i will try below.
