Right Main Wing Spar Work - Riveted the #6 screw and #8 screw nutplates to the bottom flange of W706R. Used a hand squeezer with 1.5" yoke to squeeze all of the rivets with the exception of the rivets on the bottom of the angled nutplates on the inboard end of the spar. For those I used a no hole yoke. This is a shot of the underside of the spar flange. The larger nutplates are used to hold the fuel tank on and the smaller ones on the top are for the wing inspection covers. There are more nutplates than those shown in the photo.

Right Main Wing Spar Work - This is a shot of the flush rivet heads on the other side. The spots you see around the rivet head are from the alodine.
