Brief Description: Vertical stablizer, spar, fluting and assembly
|
|
Time to start another stabilizer!
I completed as much as possible at this time on the horizontal stabilizer, so I started on the vertical stabilizer. Nothing unusual, challenging or scrwed up happened (at least not that I noticed yet!), and the assembly went together a lot faster and easier.
First the usual things. Start with the rear spar, cleco in the hinges, spar, and make holes bigger with the #30 bit.
Grind the rib edges smoth and flut them flat. Attache all the spars and ribs, drill agian.
Skin goes on the skeleton. No problems.

Cleko the skin on. Easier when it's vertical I found.
