The Horizontal Stabiliser has been sitting down the side for quite a few months as I'd created an issue with one of the small tabs on the inside of one of the ribs in a difficult place to get to.
Today, the expert dropped around to help me fix it. Unfortunately, I didn't take any shots of the fix although I'm fairly sure I included some photos of the broken tab. What we did to fix it was to make another small reinforcement plate that the set rivet clamped down on, holding the damaged tab firmly in place between it and the skin.
Getting ready to finally rivet the rear spar on after all these months.
There they are - all done!!
Another piece to find a long term storage location for.
Oh, that's right - I don't have anymore space.
Need to sell this one and buy a bigger shed....I mean, hangar
