Roll bar structure continued.
I spent quite a bit of today working on the role bar support structure. The role bar is now clecoed in its final resting place. All the necessary edge distances are good.
The canopy rail is installed and the F-417 is riveted to the bulkheads. I will need to replace the remaining clecos with blind rivets. A few are allowed, though VANS encourages you to buck as many in the space between the skin and the F-417. I cant make that work.
It is not clear that VANS intended the row of 3/32nd C/S rivets shown here, but it can't harm, and makes for a neater job with the rail pulled down tight on the skin.
