Best thing is Clecoes, lots and lots of Clecoes. Make sure your panel is down tight before you start riveting it in place. Have someone who knows how to rivet on the bucking bar, I have seen too many panels messed up because they "thought" they were on the rivet.

i've made some more progress in fitting the panel but found a slight distortion in frame "b". i carefully inspected the right side of "b" and found it even more distorted. it looks like someone kicked these panels in anger.
i hope i'm not the first person to ever attempt this work.

I'm replacing the panels on the side of the nose section. If anyone else has done this before I would appreciate any advice.
