After sequestering myself with the plans, youtube videos, and practicing drilling techinque on my damaged parts, I decided to get over my fears of failure or I'd never have an airplane to fly. I looked ahead at the plans to figure out what I can accomplish while waiting for my replacement parts. I clecoed and final drilled the the rear spar doubler and rear spar, fnal drilled the rudder attach brackets as well as final and match drilling them to the rear spar and rear spar doubler. I also fluted the assorted ribs as needed and mocked up the Vertical Stabilizer Assembly with the damaged forward spar just for the photo opportunity. Confidece regained.
