Interesting rant on vans plans
you guys ought to try working on certified AC with certified
manuals/plans...
often 43.13 is the best thing you have.... particularly on the old ones.
The reason they call them aircraft is because you are supposed to be a
craft's person to build 'em and to fly 'em.
Vans plan's fasteners diameters are rarely wrong but lengths are always
wrong, buy a ruler or inside bolt hole gauge and get over it.
2117 AD structural rivets should have a dimple in the top, one only. These
come in flush an426 or universal an470 head design mostly these days.
They tend to be good for about five to ten years then need to be reannealed
as they do age harden slowly. Try crushing a few if they cracks chuck 'em or
anneal 'em.
No dimple means 1100 soft aluminum and the list goes on, check AC43.13 1A or
1B or AC65-15A for the list.

OR, think of how many of these fricking Van's piece of junks are out there
flying around and staying together.............man, I sure hope my couple
inappropriate edge distance (totally because of this pre punch piece of
stick together rather than build) or that 4.5 I should have used rather than
the called out 4.0 .....................guess what, I slept well last
night:-)

I'm beginning to wonder if Van's instructions and drawings -- imperfect
though they may be -- AC43.13-XX, and a heapin' helpin' of testosterone are
the only things a REAL builder should need to build these things, what are
you all doing on an RV List?
Take it even MORE lightly? (g)

You know, everytime I show my wife some part I ...ummm... "assembled" (hey
the only REAL builders are the ones who mined their own aluminum!), I
instinctly make that grunting sound Tim the Toolman made on Home
Improvement.
Man, I love building.

You had testosterone? Luxury! In my day we had to kill bull wi' bare hands,
boil down oysters for testosterone, inject testosterone wi' dirty needle, AND
we mined our own bauxite. You tell the young builders that today and they
won't believe you. (Spit.)
