Very good call they do not use rivets on composite skinned aircraft so that would mean no deduction from your pension.

Of course some bean counter will order the rivets anyway.

Some expensive adhesive? Not for our boys - Speedtape FTW.

And if we run out of that then we'll use the 'black nasty' bodge tape.
