Began work on Vertical Stabilizer
I jumped right in this morning and started on the Vertical Stabilizer. Each task today took me a few minutes to knock the rust off, and then it was like old times. Todays tasks were:
- Match drill, debur, dimple and prime the lower rear spar doubler
- Rivet on the lower rear spar doubler
- Cleco together and match drill VS ribs and spars
- Cleco the skin to the ribs and spars, then match drill all the holes.
- Disassemble everything and then debur, dimple and prime all the parts
I got a lot done and with another hour of work I should be ready to rivet the Vertical Stabalizer together.
Double plate riveted on. I brushed the primer on, so it looks pretty ugly.
