--> RV9-List message posted by: Gerry Filby <gerf@gerf.com>
Folks,
I've done the drilling/deburring for the re-inforcement plates
and the rear spar. The instructions suggest drilling/dimpling
the top flange of the rear spar in the area of the
re-inforcement plates only. If I follow these instructions and
then prime the spar and plates, I will mess up the primer
coating when I finally come around to drilling/dimpling the
rest of the flange holes. Is there any reason why I shouldn't
drill/dimple all the spar flange holes right now before I prime
the spar ?
Thx

Two words: Match Drilling. When you cleco everything together with the
skins, the will will self aline (with a little help from you). The
directions are to do this with a plumb bob before you rivet, but it was
suggested to me to do this, check wash out/wash in, before match drilling.

No reason at all. I tend to get everything ready to rivet before
priming.
As for drilling out the holes after priming, no big deal. The rivet
will fill the hole when squeezed/driven and there will be very little
chance for moisture to get in there.
Since I hope to put my RV-9 on floats some day, I keep wondering if I
shouldn't spray the rivet heads as the parts go together. Sanity
prevailed and I haven't started down that slippery slop.
If you don't live on a island in the middle of the ocean, all this
corrosion protection is probably overkill.
Just my $.02 worth.
