Build log date: Wednesday, September 03, 2003
-
After building wing cradles I was able to remove the access plates and begin installing the servo bracket.
-
Per a warning letter from Van's I checked each of the bolts length and torque of the fuel tank attach brackets.
-
I've now match drilled the aileron brackets to the wings.
-
The access plates I've remove from the wings.
-
I've now cut the aileron/elevator pushrods to length.
-
I've now rivetted the aileron brackets to the wing. Getting the bottom flush rivet riveted was a huge pain in the ass. The problem is that I couldn't use the mushroom rivet set - I had to use a smaller/crummier flush set.
-
I need to use a rasp to expand the AN3 holes on these brackets and remove some of the welding bead from the inside of the shaft.
-
The aileron brass bushings have to be drilled out so the bolt can fitted into the bushing. This is all per plans.
