Brief Description:  Right Horiz. stab

I disassembled the entire structure to to be able to finish trimming the Left Horizontal Stab HS-702 Spars where it intersected with the HS-00005 rib. First I measured down to the minimum edge distance from the first rivet in the HS-702 Spar Flange as seen in Section F-F of Drawing #3. Then I rough cut the corner of the flange using aluminum snips and finally carefully used a vixen file to finish the edge down to the marked lines. Finally I test fit the HS-00005 rib in the intersect to check and make sure that the trimming was done properly. Please note: All of the attatched images are missing the HS-00001 Spar reinforcement plates, therefore even though the HS-00005 spar is in the correct position, it is not depicted as it will been when the structures are joined.

I then began working on the right side of the horizontal stabilizer by fluting the horizontal stab ribs and cleaning up the edges of the ribs using the scotchbrite wheel and and sand paper.
