Plan W05 hinge rivet count

Either I found a discrepancy in my plans or I do not understand something.

Per WIX-W06: 70 pilot holes are drilled in the piano hinge half. On WIX-W05, it calls for 66 rivets. If you account for the fact that you are not counting the 3 rivets that go through both the hinge, skin, and rib (they are already counted in the rib rivet layout section of the drawing), I believe there should be 67 rivets.

It is not in any drawing revision.

Can anyone verify this?

Thanks!
Kevin

I have found some other "counting errors" in the plans for rivet numbers in places.

Sometimes you just have to put rivets where they show rivets regardless of the callout... :o


:D
