Brief Description: Riveting the elevetor leading edges
I made quick work of drilling and riveting the elevator leading edges. I am still not completely satisfied with how they turned out and honestly I am hoping that the leading edges are hidden once installed otherwise, I will be doing some re-work of some kind. I did have to drill out one blind rivet that didn't go in straight but otherwise it was fine, just more "pillowing" between the rivets than I like. Tomorrow my friend Mike (7A builder) is coming over to help me skin the bottom of my wings!!!! Should be fun!
Blind riveting the leading edge of this elevator.
Here's one completed - note the pillowing.
Here's a close up of the worse area near the elevator horn.
