Brief Description: Finish Horizontal Stab and Governor mount
Finished up the horizontal stab today. Photo 1 shows how I bucked the rivets on the upper side of the stab. I dropped a bar that was a sloppy fit. I would remove a cleco and the bar would rest on the next lower cleco. I could then put in a rivet and use the bar to buck it. Overall it worked pretty well.
I had no luck bucking the other side however and wound up using the pull rivets that came with the kit.
Next picture is the governor bracket read for painting
The last picture is what I think is the last load of stuff going to the powder coater. Axles for the wheels, end plate for the horizontal stab, bridle for the tail rotor, aluminum flange for cabin heat, gov bracket all sitting on the horizontal stab.
