Brief Description: Finished Riveting Left Elevator Skeleton
I riveted E-705 to E-702 (flush heads forward) so I could rivet the WD-605-1-L (control horn) to E-702 and E-705. Then I set E-713 counterbalance skin to E-701 elevator skin with two rivets on the top and two on the bottom. These need to be set first because there is no access to them after the skeleton is in place. This eliminates the need for blind rivets.
Left elevator skeleton ready for skin.
These two rivets on top and bottom get set first .
This eliminates the need for blind rivets because they can't be reached later.
