Brief Description:  Rivet right Elevator

Completed riveting the right Elevator. First added a chewing-gum size amount of RTV inside the leading edge where each of the stiffeners meet. Shaping of the counter-balance weight to match the contour of the skin was next. Then clecoed the skeleton inside the right Elevator skin and began riveting. The riveting was slow going but it could not be rushed. Almost all of the riveting was done by the hand squeezer, not the air tool. There is still some followup for the right Elevator but that will come after the left Elevator is completed. On to the left Elevator!
