Brief Description:  Setting Incidence

I tried climbing into the tail to install the HS front spar bolts. I simply couldn't do it. I thought about hiring a kid to to it - the ideal person is under 100 pounds. I finally decided that I could reach the bolt through the turtle deck bulkhead for now. This will be a problem once the bulkhead is installed.



I installed the front spar bolts.



I then worked on setting the incidence. I tried using the digital level. This seemed to work pretty well, but the manual offers a second procedure of just setting the rear spar 1/16th inch off the deck. I used a 1/16th inch drill bit as a shim and drilled the holes. I then deburred and installed the rear attachment bolts.



The Horizontal Stabilizer is set!
