| Brief Description: |
Rudder FINISHED; worked on Elev Root Ass' |
|
|
* Riveted and completed Elevator Root Assembly T06-02. FOUND A 1/8" TWIST IN RH Root Rib. Emailed Kerry, who says this needs to be done over. Ordered a new RH Root Rib. * COMPLETED Rudder Assembly T08-02. * Had to drill out and replace many rivets in the Rudder that were not flat against the sheet metal. Most were done with the pneumatic riveter. I have better results with the hand riveter. TIP: The EAA Homebuilder's Tip Video on how to rivet in a tight space by making a small wedge and bending the rivet stem to a 20 degree angle was invaluable. |
