Brief Description: Elevators

|
Right Elevator - Prepped and primed all right elevator parts.
Left Elevator - Performed the following tasks on left elevator:
* Use a file to radius the top and bottom edges of the E-00001A outboard hinge doubler to nest against the spar radius.
* Cleco and drill the E-610PP and E-611PP reinforcement plates, E-00001A & B hinge doublers and corresponding platenuts to the E-702 spar.
* E-704 counterbalance rib then cleco and drill them to E-702. Remove the ribs from the spar.
* Un-cleco E-713, remove and set aside E-714, re-cleco on E-713 to E-703 and E-704. Then cleco the E-703, E- 704, E-713 subassembly to E-702.
* Cleco the E-705 root rib left to E-702.
* Final drill #40, E-705 to E-702.
* Cleco E-701-L to the understructure. Note that E-701-L lays on top of E-713.
* Remove the clecos connecting E-705 to the E-702 then cleco and drill the WD-605-1-L elevator horn to E-702 and E-705.
* Cleco and final drill E-606PP to E-705 (at the root end of the E-606PP spar).
* Drill the E-701-L skin to the understructure.
* Machine countersink the top flange of E-606PP to accept the dimples in the E-701-L skin (See “Countersinking”, Section 5.5). Dimple the bottom flange of E-606PP.
* Machine countersink for the rivets that attach E-705 to E-606PP, the flush head can go on either the forward face of E-705 or aft face of E-606PP. (I did this on the aft face of E-606PP).
* Machine countersink the E-705 attach holes on the forward face of E-702 (See “Countersinking”, Section 5.5).
E-705 and E-702 will be riveted together with flush head rivets, so that the WD-605-1-L elevator horn can be mounted flush with the forward face of the E-702 spar.
* Bevel the inboard and aft edges of E-713 locally where E-713 overlaps the spar and rib flanges to provide a smooth transition between the counterbalance skin and the E-701-L elevator skin.
