Saw this news article on another site. Interesting and relevant quote:
Investigations have since revealed that the 8-foot x 4-foot panel, part of the plane's belly, had been secured with only five screws instead of the usual 17.
Less riveting error and more extra parts at the end of the job, it seems.
