Brief Description:  Bent trim tab end ribs

Bent the end tabs of the elevator trim tab.The outside bent looks OK, the inside one not so. I did bent (by accident) the top tab farther 'in' than the bottom one (by around 1/16"). If I do put the top tab outside of the bottom one (as the construction manual suggests), the trim tab skin is warped. By putting the bottom tab on the outise, the trim tab works out OK.
Putting the construction of the trim tab on hold until the left elevator is finished.
On the left elevator, rivetted the counterbalance assembly to the spar.

Next: Continue rivetting (closing) the left elevator.
