Plugged the hole in the outboard T-903 end rib

The instructions gave me the choice of creating a cover plate to rivet on or squeezing a really large rivet into the hole. It just so happens that I have a "bucket o' rivets" that I got from another builder that has already completed his RV. I found the perfect size rivet in the bucket and squeezed it into the hole. I made sure that the hole already had some proseal in it before the squeeze. Then I put an extra dab of black goo on top of the rivet, on both sides.
