One more piece done!
I am now finished with the tail cone and have started the work to assemble all the tail parts. I had my father in law help me rivet the rest of the tail cone together (I was on the inside). Today I began assembly of the empennage. All is fitting together well. I am learning quickly how to remove and replace bolts between the elevators and the HS. The HS trailing edges line up almost perfect, but one trim tab has a 1/4 inch warp in it. I might have to replace that before I am finished with the plane, but can wait for now. I need to hurry up and finish the assembly so that I can move the prats to my parents house and Heather can get her car back in the garage.
