Jeff Mitchell - Experimental Aircraft Builder's Log

Jeff Mitchell's RV8 project


Date: 7-9-2007
Number of Hours: 1.50
Manual Reference: 6-11, 6-12
Brief Description: Trim Tab construction (4).

I match drilled the control horn and marked the location of the hinge then drilled it to the tab skin and trim tab spar. I used two 1/8" drill bits to line up the two control horns instead of a 'clevis' pin as the manual suggests.
