| Brief Description: |
Fabricated back boards for the tail cone |
|
|
The plywood boards have been cut and fitted to the lower longerons in the fuselage tail cone. I had to make some adjustments to the dimensions on the shop prints but they were minor. After cutting the two boards to fit I covered the edges in duct tape to protect the primed/painted longerons as much as possible. For now I am leaving the bellcrank assembly installed and will place some padding over it to save my back. If it's too uncomfortable it will have to be removed. I am hoping it doesn't require removal since getting all the bolts, washers, spacers, nuts, and safety wire back in place while laying on my stomach or side will be a bitch. |
