Hi guys
Haven't been around much in a while Big life changes, got divorced, but got to
keep the plane. Got a new job. and finally I'm back on the build mode treadmill.
I was re -organizing my upgrade parts box and ticking work done off the list, but
I'm kinda stumped. When I got my spar upgrade kit, I got a big bag of A6 rivets.
I cannot for the life of me figure out where they are used. I've been
over the upgrade plans 12 ways to Sunday and i still don't see where they go.
Maybe I ordered them in case i screwed up holes when drilling out A5's but if I'm
just spacing out and not seeing where they are used, I'd appreciate a little
help
Thanks

Hi Larry,
You got me! I've never even heard of an A6 rivet and I have completed
both the basic XL kit and the upgrade.
You will need a bunch of A5 rivets for the wing skins after removing
them for the upgrade. You also have to figure out how to rebuild the
main wing spars - with bolts or hard rivets.
Good luck,
Paul
