Dear Listers,
Some have asked, "What's my Contribution used for?" and that's a good question.
Here are just a few examples of what your direct List support enables. It provides
for the very expensive, commercial-grade T1 Internet connection used on
the List insuring maximum performance and minimal contention when accessing List
services. It pays for the regular system hardware and software upgrades enabling
the highest performance possible for services such as the Archive Search
Engine, List Browser, and Forums. It pays for narly 20 years (yeah, I really
said *20* years) worth of online archive data available for instant random search
and access. And, it offsets the many hours spent writing, developing, and
maintaining the custom applications that power this List Service such as the List
Browse, Search Engine, Forums, and Wiki.
But most importantly, your List Contribution enables a forum where you and your
peers can communicate freely in an environment that is free from moderation,
censorship, advertising, commercialism, SPAM, and computer viruses. How many places
on the Internet can you make all those statements these days?
It is YOUR CONTRIBUTION that directly enables these many aspects of these valuable
List services. Please support it today with your List Contribution. Its one
of the best investments you can make in your Sport...

I re-read a previous post of mine and found an error.
I refered to the 'shop head' of the rivet when actually it should read
'factory head'. The 'factory head' has a small dimple that
centers your drill on the rivet while you are drilling the head off.
More care would be needed to drill the shop head off since it does not
have a center dimple.
The shop head is the side that was deformed when the rivet was
originally set.
At any rate the Zenith Builders and Flyers site blog
http://www.zenith.aero/profiles/blogs/part-3-installing-the-upgrade
Part 3: Installing the "Upgrade Package" to our Zodiac CH 601 XL:
Drilling out the top inboard main wing spar
has the solid rivet removal technique covered in detail.
PS In keeping with good journalistic procedures, notice my retractions
are published weeks later,
in smaller type, on the back pages and after it doesn't matter any more.

A Technique for removing the solid rivets:
The spar cap solid rivets can be drilled just far enough to almost
remove the shop head then a light tap from the side with a chisel
removes the rest of the shop head, the rivet body is then lightly
driven out of the hole with a smaller drift punch without any chance of
damaging the holes. It all went very well. I did find a mass against
the opposite side from the drift punch helped a lot just don't damage
your spar caps with this mass.

Boy, NASA is really going to a lot of trouble to keep that old story that they
went to the moon alive, aren't they?

Nah, probably just hired some high school intern with photoshop skills.
I thought the footpath trails radiating out from the lander was a nice touch.
DO NOT ARCHIVE
No, I don't believe the landed on the Moon, I know they did!
