    Default Rivet Holes for Wing Fabric

    In Section 47 of the Wing manual there are instructions to drill four holes in preparation for later fabric fixing as per Photo 279 on page 180. Although the photo shows a double rib, the instructions do not detail which rib clips are to be drilled.
    At this stage of fabrication, Rib #5 already has a strap installed overtop the displayed photo 279.
    By deduction, I think this applies only the clips on the top and bottom of Rib #5, is this correct?

    Default Re: Rivet Holes for Wing Fabric

    The only hole that I needed to drill was the hole(s) in photo 279, just one hole per top and bottom clip for the double ribs (rib #5). 2 per wing, total 4 holes.
