Folks,
FYI - Somewhere on the internet people are advocating that this is the way to install a windshield in a Cessna. Here is the response from Textron structures:
"We do not endorse the installation of rivnuts, but believe others (Cessna Pilots Association possibly) have provided such guidance in the past. Such an installation would have to be done at installer’s discretion and signed off by them."
And in this picture below, some fine craftsmanship from a previous mechanic. Its amazing work. They managed to expand the rivnut in between the boot cowl and the firewall.
