RE: 1962 Cherokee, Airtex interior
I didn't get any answer on the Cherokee board so I ask here.
1st Q: The bulkhead immediately aft of the baggage area, can I drill into this to rivet nutplates to secure a heavy fabric partition? The partition is designed to keep baggage, etc from entering the tail section and exposed control cables.
2nd Q: Would tinnermans be better than nut plates? I'm thinking the drilled holes need to be 'bridged' by the nutplates in order to preserve bulkhead integrity. Due to tight quarters I may have a problem getting a rivet gun into the work area.
