Hello Keith

At the wing tip, all the rivets are dimpled. At the root, just the leading edge are dimpled, balance are tank rivets...

Just wondering if I am correct in the assumption that
all the holes for the root rib and the tip rib
including the stringers at these locations are
dimpled? I am refering to the attachment point where
the top, bottom, and leading edge skins connect to the
ribs.

I am riveting on the stringers to the leading edge
right now and it makes sense that they shoould be
dimpled for ease of mounting the tip and the root rib
flashing. I read ahead in the manual and first they
say rivet and then later it looks like they are
supposed to be dimpled.

Thanks,
Keith

Thanks guys. The Rebel manual may be a little
deficient also. But I can't blame it all on it. I only
brought the wing section of my manual here with to
Hawaii so I can't "look ahead" in the manual.

Thanks,
Keith

Keith,
Dimple (countersink rivet) all the way around both
wing tip ribs and both wing root ribs. Also both
fuselage ribs. The Elite manual is, shall we say,
"deficient" regarding this.
