 |

The plans call for you to countersink the aft six holes in the fuselage skin, where it mates to the forward six holes in the tailcone skin, F-1023 baggage floor angle, and F10100-A shim (page 32-4 figure 3). The QB fuselage has the forward holes dimpled in those pieces. The floor angle and shim was just temporarily attached with pop rivets. Why would I not dimple those remaining holes also? The .032 skin is the minimum for countersink, and I don't see an access issue. Is this a mistake in the plans, or is there a reason to countersink, not dimple. The same for the rivets above the baggage door, and on the right side, that go thru the skin into the longerons. All the holes that were filled with rivets have been dimpled, but the plans call for the remaining ones to be countersunk. Vans says to just build it. Anyone with an input?

I just went out and looked at my fuse as I just did that step a few weeks ago. I countersunk the 6 holes as the plans said. There is plenty of material behind the skin with the shim and angle, no worries. I agree with Vans on this one, just build it.
