Started work on installing the nutplates on the W-919 splice plate
This splice plate gives support to the tank skin which will sit on top of it and help snuggle the tank up to the outboard leading edge skin, for a nice transition down the leading edge of the wing. Here I just finished final drilling he splice holes with a #19 drill bit. Just for grins I decided to use the ATS hand squeezer to dimple the holes with a set of #8 dimple dies, which is shown in the next picture. I noticed that when I dimpled these holes, there wasn't a crater in the skin around dimple like the ones in the tank skin. Hmmmm...
