Left Elevator Progress

Tonight was a mix of tasks.  We manufactured an attach gusset (it reinforces the joint between the rib and the trim tab spar).  We finished match drilling the last few holes, deburred and dimpled the ribs.  We machine countersunk the trim tab spar.  We also begain prepping the finished parts for priming.  We have a few more parts (the spars and the skins) to dimple and then it will be time to prime and assemble the elevator.

We noticed we have not created the gusset piece yet. 


The specifications.
