Brief Description: Rassembled rudder, trimmed nose skin, and riveted

Reassembled the trailing skin. cleko'd in place (ensured the proper spacer under trailing lower edge) When i went to fit the nose skin, i realized i had forgot to trim the edges 10mm from center of rivet line. Marked, cut and filed the nose skin 10 mm from the rivet lines. Attached the nose skin, overlapping the trailing skin. Cleko'd in place (ever third hole) Riveted between the cleko's and then removed cleko's and finished all but the spar rivet line below the nose skin. Turned it over, and did the same for the other side. The rudder is complete!!!
