Vertical stab 3

Work continued on the vertical stab. With the skin riveted to the forward spar, it was time to insert the rear spar. The blue tape is a reminder not to rivet those holes.

I did not get a bunch of shots of the work on the rear spar. I can tell you this: I prefer to use the rivet run and bucking bar when working the 3/32" rivets. For some reason the squeezer was not producing flat shop ends on the rivets. The 3/32" rivets are so small, the 2X gun makes very short work of them. 

Behold!!! A finished vertical stab! Well, except for the fiberglass tip, that comes later....
