Continued work on the left elevator

Posted by: jochs | Comments (0)

I completed the corrosion protection on the left elevator and riveted it together up to needing the special rv-10 bucking bar. Haven’t yet made the ribs for the trailing edge. It is somewhat difficult to rivet the elevator horns cleanly because of the angle between the front spar and the inboard rib.

Karen did the corrosion protection of all the components, except the skins, access cover, and access doubler plate.  I began riveting the front spar, the tip rib assembly, and the elevator horns on to the root rib and spar.
