Got it, so use the BSPS-44s anywhere a BSP-44 is needed. Nothing special about the 'S' suffix (as far as Panther building goes).

I know the plans sheets for VT and HT show BSP-44 rivets at the spar to rib connections . (although 42s will work in most cases). This may be why they are in the hardware kit.

Rick-
I'm not sure, but I bet that they go on the hinges or spar caps. Stainless protruding might be the key!

Does anyone know where the BSPS-44 rivets are used that come with the tail kit? A search of the BM PDF only shows them in the inventory list and I don't see them mentioned in the plans.
