Time:>Those "A" rivets sure were easy to set though weren't they?

I'm glad you caught this. It would have been a bad situation if you hadn't.
I know of a Thorpe T-18 that came apart in flight because the builder did
the same thing but no one caught it!

Unfortunatly this HAD been pointed out to him but he ignored it, it is reported that he used words to the effect " Won't make any difference, this airplane is so overbuilt....." The joint is question was between the center section and outer panels and called for Hi-Shear rivets, he used regular AD's. That joint was analyzed after the accident and was found to be good for less than 2 G's so friction between the two surfaces was helping out a bunch. Unfortunatly it happened in front of the crowd at Osh and the FOOL did a steep pullup with a teenage girl as a passenger. Next door neighbor built TWO T18's from scratch and presented all this info at a chapter meeting 20-25 yrs ago, have no clue why I remember this , can't remember what I had for breakfast.

Just to make sure- the HDS plans call for standard ADs, right? Or did I miss
something?

John,
Thanks for the memory jogger about the T-18. That was the same incident I
was recalling with some errors. Shame it happened.
do not archive

R.P-
Good. I just received a product from ACS with their bar code stock label
calling out a different grade than that of the manufacturer's. It's getting
scary. Like going in for a colonoscopy and coming out with a colonectomy!

As long as 2 cute nurses put you to sleep, who cares what they do.

If the nurses I had could be considered "Cute", dogs belong on the
centerfold of Playboy. With my endorsement.
