Brief Description:  Elevator Construction

Well, finally back at work on the airplane after three weeks away (week at work, week working on house when last off - doing spring cleanup, and another week of work). Picked up where I left off working on the skeletons for the elevators. Fitted the counterbalance weight to the left elevator skeleton and then drilled both weights to both left and right skeletons. Completed the skeleton construction of both left and right by adding the root ribs, then cleco'd the skin onto both sides. Then cleco'd and final drilled the elevator control horns to both sides as well. Finally drilled the skin to the understructure. Next step for tomoroow is to disassemble and prep the parts and prime them.
