One hour to install the rudder cable fairings. First the holes had to be dimpled, this required some innovative thinking due to the lack of access. The cables had also to be removed. I used pop rivets.

Today we ended the riveting of the rear fuselage, in the tailcone some rivets proved a bit difficult, but we finally managed to set them.

In one hour we managed to partially finish one side of the rear fuselage and begin the other side. The tailcone is still to be done, but it's not easy with the fuselage in the position shown on the picture. The lower part in the picture does not get riveted until much later when the other parts are mated.

In three hours (we included some time to view the Tout de France stage arrival) we managed to rivet all the lower skin and part of one of the side skins. We used a mix of traditional riveting with the mushroom set and some backriveting.
