Today we finished up the remaining tasks on the empennage (at least those we can do prior to inspection). We installed the trailing edge wedges by match drilling to the top elevator skin, through the wedge and into the bottom skin. After that we deburred and dimpled the skins and machine countersunk the wedges. We then prepped and primed the parts. Finally we rolled the rudder leading edge. We spent the remaining time cleaning and reorganizing the shop.
We'll start on the wings on Tuesday.
