Brief Description: Finished Riveting Trim Tab Hinge
Today I finished riveting the trim tab hinge on the elevator. The bottom forward part of the trim tab was interferring with the elevator skin so like many other builders I just slightly bent the bottom forward skin of the trim tab up just a bit to get the clearance I needed as shown in the second pic. It turned out really nice with easy movement and about 30 degrees of downward deflection and way more upward deflection.
About 30 degrees down deflection.
I had to bend the bottom of the trim tab so it would clear the elevator .
