I finished riveting the inspection hole backing rings in. The only trouble I ran into was a single nutplate was interfering with the pully at the spar joint. I drilled out the rivets and replaced the K1100-6 with another non-dimpled nutplate…..that was shorter by just enough to clear. I’ll need to remember to use a short screw here!
I also deburred, rolled the edges and dimpled the Aux tank bay cover. I attached it with a handful of screws to make sure it fits.
Here is a pic of all the covers:
