Brief Description:  Elevator Assembly

Right Elevator is coming together... all stiffeners are backriveted in place. The inside of the forward spar on the elevators faces into the leading edge of the elevators. This makes it very difficult to rivet the upper skin to the spar (using a bucking bar blindly). The lower skin is riveted in a few places with a squeezer but a larger amount must be done with blind rivets. At least the line of skin to spar rivets (some solid - some pop rivets) is on the bottom of the elevator and will be hard to spot when the plane passes overhead at several thousand feet.
