Brief Description: Assembled rudder
|
|
I was on a business trip for the past week, so it has been a while. The good part is that I was able to make a stop at Sun 'n Fun along the way, so got a chace to visit with the engine, avionics, lighting, interior and other vendors I will be selecting from as this project progresses. Tonight I finished riveting the stiffeners to the rudder skin, then assembled the rudder skeleton using clecos, the clecoed the counterbalance skin and the rudder skins to the skeleton. Finally, the trailing edge angle was celcoed in. The rudder is fully assembeld with clecos and is now ready for final drilling of all holes before disassemble, deburr and dimple.
