Nose Gear Leg Fairing ( 3 hrs )
Aligned & clamped hinge along aft edge, then drilled #40 holes for rivets per 46A-16 & -17. Had to deviate from Vans instructions since Leg Fairing is primed, so NOT translucent. Simply transferred centerline from hinge to surface of Fairing on each end. Machine C'sunk hole for flush rivets along that line. Trimmed fiberglass flanges. Very pleased with how well T.E. turned out. Ready to deburr and prime hinge, then rivet.
