Hours Today: 1.3 Project Total: 304.1



Good Morning!  Well, with the heat here in North Texas (7 straight days over 100 degrees) I've decided to reorganize my daily routine (not sure if I really had one…)  Anyway, I'm going to try working on the plane before heading to work each day.  Should be a little cooler in the garage at 5:30am instead of 6:00pm.  Yeah, we have a small A/C unit but when the garage is 100+ degrees to begin with and the walls aren't insulated, it can only do so much!
(9-12 step 5):  So here we go… I first clecoed the lower skin in place on the left elevator making sure the closeout tabs and rib halves are positioned correctly.  Then I squeezed the rivets I could.  After that it was out with the bucking bar like last night in order to get the remaining ones.  And that's it... the skins are attached to the rear spar on the left elevator!

Now it's off to work... fun, fun!!
