Subject: RV4-List: Wing closure &aileron gap fairing

--> RV4-List message posted by: PGLong@aol.com

My wing has the lower skin riveted on. Instructions tell me to fit the 
aileron gap fairing with the top outboard skin clecoed in place and then to 
rivet it to the top skin. If I do this, how will I rivet the top skin on 
(when I get to that point) starting at rib sta. 61.25 and progressing 
outward. To do this you have to curl the skin and work outward. Question "how 
is the skin going to curl if you have the gap fairing riveted on trailing 
edge?" I must be missing something........
