Brief Description:  Riveting right elevator

Didn't get to work on the plane as much as I would have like today, wasn't feeling good and other things going on around the house. I did get the right counter-weight trimmed down per the plans and I riveted the right side of the elevator horn onto the substructure. Mitchel came out and helped me with the riveting and that worked out great! We almost finished all of the skin riveting! Hopefully we can finish tomorrow morning and then we move onto the left elevator.

Mitchel is putting in the rivets while I squeeze! I wish I had his job, but he's not stout enough,yet!
