I am now at the step of last cleaning before rivet/proseal the gas tank.... On the solid main rib, for the 3 flanges that we rivet/proseal (for gas level sight and gas output) the manual don't show nothing about the hole we should do at the bottom of those flange. Should I make them now or if I let it like that (to bo done later at a another step)? Manual is so clear......

I drilled the holes before pro-sealing and rivetting the flanges on.
Probably doesn't matter if you wait but it could be tough to drill without
damaging the threads on the flange.

Hello,

I am working on the tail section of the fuselage (Rebel).

Before making the floor, the manual send me to the float attache point
#12.27. At 12.27.22, the manual ask to rivet the bulkhead "doubler"
to the outer corner wrap... but that corner wrap is still drill to #40 and is not
riveted in the others location.... Look "bizarre" and I would like to double
check...

Please let me know....
