I am inspecting the 51 fuselage from the top down and forward back, making sure all the new hardware around the firewall is heat proof, all the aluminum is painted, holes filled with either rivets or screws. Danny and I repaired a 2 inch hole through the left side, per the North American Structures Manual, we still need to put the filler in. My EAA Sheet metal class really paid off, making me feel comfortable now I feel ready to finish up all those repairs. It was great having Danny there with all his experience riveting race cars.
