(8-2 step 4, 8-3 step 1, 8-5 step 8):
It's been two weeks, but we're back at it! Tonight after
work I went out and surveyed what had been done. I knew we were
pretty close to priming the horizontal stabilizer front spars and all
the associated stiffeners & brackets so I planned to make sure all
the necessary steps were done to get us there. A few of the
doublers needed some touching up, as did the attaching brackets, but
overall everything was pretty close. I also scuffed up all the
powder coated brackets since they'll be painted later. I then
scuffed up the attaching brackets and alodined them since they're not
alclad. Next time we'll scuff all the alclad pieces and clean
them in prep for priming.
