• The trim servo reinforcement plate is now primed so I can rivet in the various nutplate for the access cover. Later on I realized I needed to grind off a small amount of this plate so the complete servo assembly could be installed once the elevator is closed.

  

• Here is a dumb move. For my first back riveting, I was like - hey this is great! Very smooth. Till I realized that I hadn't put the stiffener on the rivets. Dumbass. I later drilled out the four rivets I screwed up.

  

• I also screwed up one rivet - I must have missed some burr under the stiffner. I drilled out the rivet and replaced. I've labeled the stiffener in this photo so that if this rivet ever starts smoking I'll know why.

  

• These are the four screwed up rivets I mentioned in the first photo.

  

• Now that the stiffeners are in, the skeleton can be match drilled to the skin. I'll still need to disassemble, deburr, dimple, prime.
