Brief Description: Attach HS
|
|
Finished attaching the Horizontal Stab, drilled the four bolts that hold the rear HS spar, and inserted the bolts. Then starting working on the elevators, getting the clearance right, and had to sand down a few pop rivets that were rubbing the elevator leading edge slightly. Then drilled the horn, but lining up the elevator trailing edges, clamping the elevators to the HS, and drilling, after drilling the hole in the aft most horn on the right elevator. Drilled a piece of wood with the drill press, to make it perfectly perpendicular, and then clamped the wood between the two horns. Then drilled to size, and attached the elevator push rod. Attached it in the forward section as well, so I could move the elevator with the stick for the first time. Had Jack and Max jump in and they moved it too. Minor moment, but pretty cool none the less.
