Brief Description:    Trim Tab skin replacement and SB 06-09-20
Worked on several outstanding items today. First, I decided to pull the E-616PP Trim Cover Plate off the Left Elevator (in the rafters) to address Van's Service Bulletin (SB) 06-09-20. I had purchased the WD-415-1 Manual Trim Cable anchor a few months back and just today decided to R&R the old WD-415. Fairly easy to do at this point, and didn't take too long. Next, I tackled the larger job of replacing the skin on my Trim Tab due to a dent/blemish on the bottom side of the old one that has bugged me since early last year. I ordered the replacement skin at the same time I ordered the WD-415-1 Cable Anchor. This job took a bit longer, and the new skin is an improverment over the old one. Finally, I located a 6-32 bottoming tap at the local hardware store to be used to tap for the screws that will hold the AOA/Pitot tube to the mast. Good to get this miscellaneous stuff out of the way.
