Brief Description:    Horizontal Stabilizer Repair
hrs
Rather than build a new cradle for the horizontal stabilizer I had Karen hold it vertical while I riveted. She also kept me straight if I was about to rivet myself into a corner. I completed all skin rivets, including the inboard ribs. I had to trim the HS-00005 inboard main ribs slightly to clear the “rivets to nowhere” near the forward ends flanges. I still need to set the six #4 rivets in the forward and aft flanges of the inboard main ribs, but I’d like to have some help again with the offset.
