Sounds like good advice, Phil. Thank you.
Today I figured I had enough stuff to glue that it was worth burning the Hysol I would lose in a discarded mixing nozzle. I started by drilling the rivet holes in the elevator push-pull bushing adapters to attach the male threaded rod ends, deburring, cleaning, applying Hysol, pulling two rivets, then panicking when I realized that the 1/8" x 1/4" rivets called out in the manual interfere with each other in the ID of the rod end. I was able to drill them out and clean up the Hysol before it set, then experiment with 1/8" x 3/16" rivets instead. Those had plenty of grip length and didn't foul on each other, so I reapplied Hysol, pulled six rivets and ended up with one of these on each end of the tube.

Next up was gluing in a new false rib in one of the wings. I also re-glued four other false ribs that had been knocked loose at some point, but I only took photos of the new one.

While the Hysol gun was at hand, I glued down the protruding ends of the aluminum "Z" pieces around the door opening, at the aft end of each door. That required some creative clamping that taping to (hopefully) hold the ends down tight. It remains to be seen whether it'll be successful.

Finally, I glued the new bottom rib pieces into the base of the tail.
