Brief Description:  Finishing elevators

I went to the hanger today to continue the final fit of the elevators. When I left the right side of the horizontal stabilizer needed to be trimmed so the counter-balance arm of the right elevator would swing freely. The first and second photos so the before and after state. I used my sheetmetal nibbler to trim the HS down. After that I secured to the elevators to a trail position to check the position of the control horns. They are almost perfectly aligned, all I need is the bushing to drill them to size. I will find a suitable bushing next week. I have a lot of time as my order from Vans will not be here for four or five weeks.
