The inspector called..

Oops rivet

Before I put the aft decking on my inspector popped round to check on progress.  I particularly wanted him to look where I had put a MK319 blind rivet where I had drilled out a bad AN426-3-3.5 in one of the bulkhead flanges.  The 319s are 7/64th which I thought would be ideal with the enlarged hole but I wasn’t happy with it.  Turns out nor was the inspector so I drilled it out and put a 426-4-3.5 Oops rivet in its place.  Much better and a lesson learnt.
