Brief Description: Skin removed for trimming, skin trimmed
I dissassembled the elevator to trim the skin. I trimmed away both the top skin and bottom skin to allow for movement of the rudder during flight operations. I also marked out, and drilled the edges of the cutout on the leading edge of the elevator to be removed later once the elevator has been reassembled.
Bottom skin trimmed to allow room for rudder movement
Center section marked and edges drilled for ease of removal later on
Top skin trimmed to allow for rudder movement, electric trim location marked installation
