Sep 24, 2022     Vertical Stab and Rudder - (14 hours)       Category: Fuselage
Finished both sides of the vertical stab (except for the finish tapes) and also completed covering the rudder. I used the envelope method on the rudder just to try it out and while it's a bit more cumbersome to work on the piece with that full second half of fabric hanging out there, it does make for a nice leading edge without a seam. I also painted all the flaperon brackets so they are all ready to install later this Winter. Painted the cover I made for the bottom of the rudder as well. While I was painting, I thought I would paint my inspection panels as well. Was really happy with the way they came out and thought I had picked the perfect day for it (no paint booth - outside on a table). Left them to dry out in the sun and came back to find that the wind had come up and blown the plastic covering the table (that I thought I had secured) up and on to the panels. So it's back to the sandpaper and paint them again.
