The instructions say to "drill all of the remaining holes (except for the ones for the F-706 bulkhead and the F-718 longerons) to final size.
Then it describes and order of riveting (after dburring etc) that says to rivet the botto skins to the bulkheads and J-channel, and to rivet the side skins to the bulkheadds up to the upper J-channel and to the jchannel itself but no higher.
That, to me, tells me to rivet those side skins all the way up to -- but not including -- the F706 bulkhead.
But if I do that --- and since I haven't been allowed to drill them to final size -- how will I dimple these holes once I HAVE drilled them to final size? The skins will be riveted on and there'll be no access to get a dimpler in there?
