Empennage



I had a lot of help on the project today. Both Donna and Jim spent time in the garage with me as we wrestled with rolling and riveting the leading edges of both the elevators. Once we got those finished I installed the rod bearings per the plans and did a preliminary check and mounted the left elevator to the horizontal stabilizer. There's still a lot of trimming to get the elevator aligned to swing through it's full up and down travel without interference.
