Sidney Mayeux - Experimental Aircraft Builder's Log

Sid & Houston Mayeux Project


Date: 11-5-2011
Number of Hours: 2.00
Manual Reference: Hor Stab
Brief Description: Drilling forward stab, installing shims

Once the holes pilot holes were drilled, we installed the shims under the forward spar and match-drilled to 3/16" (for the AN3 mounting bolts). Not sure why we used the duct tape, other than it just isn't a proper job unless a man can use duct tape.
