Brief Description:    Elevator & Flap systems
Did some miscellaneous things today:

- Test fit the SF812-3 bushing in the aft end of the elevator pushrod. It is too short to get through the hole in the end of the fitting. I have emailed Sonex to find out if there is another bushing to use.

- To get the elevator pushrod end fitting and the elevator pushrod to fit together I had no luck just sanding the paint off, so I used paint stripper to get to bare metal. That finally did the trick. I will prime paint later.

- Made 2 more dips of the brake handle into the Plasti Dip. That makes 5 total dips, and that seems to make the right thickness.

- Machined the finger indents in the flap handle, then made the first dip into RED Plasti Dip.
