Brief Description:  Begin install elevator hinges

Inspected canard and elevators. Carnard had some blue-foam damage (about 8" deep) from the RH tip, but it is in otherwise good condition.

One of the elevators had some minor chipping of the primer/filler coat at the leading edge, but shining a flashlight down the LE aluminum tube showed now internal damage.

Marked positions of hinges on canard and both elevators. Drilled and cleco'd elevator hinges. Cut slots in canard for hinge support peices. Did preliminary install / dry-fit and all looked quite good - 18.25" from leading edge to trailing edge all along entire length. Elevators in-plane with each other and the canard per instructions.

(no pics as my phone is still out of service).
