Hey there,

  

 I'm finishing the wingtips on my -8.  Part number W-412 is the wingtip  rib at the trailing edge.  The plans call for the flange to face inboard,  toward the aileron. I've heard people then fill the opening of the wingtip,  so that it is smooth.  

  

 My question is, rather than doing it that way, why not put the flange  facing outboard.  I realize that the rivets will be tougher to buck, but  I'm going to over-countersink them  and glass them over anyway.  So  why not use pulled rivets?

  

 Thanks,

  

 Tim Cone
