Prepped Elevator Skeleton for Drilling

| | Comments (0) | TrackBacks (0)
I clecoed the counterbalance rib to the end rib and attached both to the spar.  Getting the last holes in the spar flange to line up with the holes in the counterbalance rib was a real pain and required several iterations of adjusting the bend of the counterbalance rib flange for that last hole.



Here is the counterbalance skin clecoed on with the counterweight in place.  I drilled through the holes in the end for the counterbalance weight attach bolts.



Here is the elevator skin clecoed on.  This is the left elevator.



And this is the right elevator.



While I was at it, I clecoed the elevator horns on so that they could be drilled at the same time.
