Elevator Ribs

Lining up all the elevator ribs prior to attaching.


Ahhhh, my first elevator rib rivet!







Riveting the ribs to the rear spars using AN470AD4 rivets caused me to do a little more investigation as you can see two photos down, riveting as per Vans Plans Section 5 direction creates a bow in the rib flange which is not ideal.





Below is the flange deviation I was referring to above...





see the next post on what I did to rectify this.
