Hi folks,
I have to remove the control surfaces from my K 21 for an upcoming inspection. Does anyone know what size rivets I will need to reinstall them? I can’t find the reference in my maintenance manual and the flight manual is 60 miles away at the gliderport. Thanks in advance, Chuck |

The glider is due for a 3000 hour inspection. Schleicher requires the control surfaces to be checked for mass balance as a part of the inspection program.
Regarding the monel question, did I just order the wrong rivets? Chuck |

RAS is a poor source for approved data. If it is a 3k inspection is that not per a factory S/B? if so it may be on line. In general drilling out a monel blind with a steel core is less fun than Alum. YMMV aerodyne |
