EAA=99s 601 Survey Helps Make Case to FAA
http://www.eaa.org/experimenter/articles/2009-12_welcome.asp
an excerpt:
EAA understands that the FAA considered a number of responses to the
safety concerns relating to these aircraft, including drastic,
unprecedented actions that would have been highly undesirable for the
homebuilt community. EAA stepped forward to protect your privilege to
build and fly your homebuilts. For example, EAA conducted a survey of
Zodiac builders and owners to gain an understanding of how the issue was
being dealt with in the field. Over 400 responses were received, with a
large majority of owners indicating that they were aware of and had read
the relevant documents and were taking action to address the issue. This
information gave the FAA a level of confidence that owners of these
aircraft were acting in a timely and responsible manner and that no
additional action was necessary. I want to thank everyone who took time to
complete the survey. This information was critical to our efforts to
assure the FAA that the homebuilt community cares about safety issues and
that we act responsibly with regard to safety. This =9Cself-policing
=9D is the
key to maintaining our privileges and freedoms to build and fly homebuilt
aircraft.

Right on, Carlos. I was taught by a guy who runs a wing shop to drill
"just enough", and then use a small drift to snap the weakened head off.
Never saw him screw up a hole.

Subject: Re: Zenith601-List: Rivet Sets?
Terry, just make sure the sledge hammer has a polished surface.
Yesterday I had to remove a bunch of rivets from my HD centre wing
skeleton.
To avoid damaging the parts, I did not drill until the rivet head
comes off. I stopped a little early (practice determines when it is "a
little early"), and then remove the remaining material with a pair of
cutting pliers.
After all rivet heads are removed, the parts come apart quite easily
(in this case, an L angle and the landing gear rib).
With the cutting pliers, I then remove the rest of the rivet - no need
for a centre punch.
I thought maybe this process can be used to remove the XL skin without
damaging the underlying rib flange.
Cheers
Carlos
Ch601-HD, plans
One step forward, two backward. Maybe I should turn around 180
degrees.

Bingellis recommends a 5 lb bucking bar for the 3/16 rivets. I
haven't seen any that heavy, and I was thinking of using a sledge hammer
instead.
