Trailing edge prosealed and clecoed

Ok, so the first flap turned out to be much more work that I anticipated. The
deburring process was tedious with all of the small parts.Riveting was
pretty slow with the tight quarters and numerous blind rivets. I finally, made
it to the final stage of securing the trailing edge with proseal. I will let
that cure for a few days and then hit it with the final rivets.All in
all, it turned out great! This piece is fairly heavy too. I cant wait to mount
it on the wing next week.

Flap riveting complete

I ended up squeezing the top rivet and bucking the 2nd

I have to get creative to back rivet these
