Horizontal Front Spar Work

Well, with the VS and Rudder complete, time to move on to the Horizontal Stabilizer. Or, BACK to the horizontal stabilizer. Back on Oct 19, I mis-oriented the HS-0003 reinforcement plates, causing mis-drilling of one of the forward spar channels and one of the reinforcement angles. Those parts came in, and it is time to get everything back on track.

This first picture is of the two front spar assembles matchdrilled with the reinforcement plate and angle brackets.

small pieces becoming big pieces!

This next picture is of the two forward spars disassembled and with the relief notches cut into them.

One set of notches is better than the other, but they both have good edge distance.

I didn’t have a ton of time tonight, so it was just these two pictures. I’ll be back soon (foreshadowing!).

0.5 hours.
