Sep 20, 2020 7 Completion on the Horizontal Stab Category: Tail Feathers
Today I completed the assembly of the Horizontal Stab. Main goal was to correct a bad rivet on the L bracket holding the end rib on the tip. I then finished riveting the skin to the skeleton frame. I made a mistake while cleaning up a hole on the stab tip. The drill grabbed and pulled thru causing the hole to be bigger then needed. I repaired the hole by mixing 30min epoxy and micro balloons to fill the whole and then added 2oz fiberglass on top and bottom of the hole to regain the strength. I also ordered the remaining parts of the kit and I will be picking it up on Nov 30th 2020.
