Build Session 10, 10172010, 1.5 hours, 24 total
Empennage, Rudder Page 07-02 and 07-03
Completed through Step 07-03 and stopped to Prime contact parts.
Rivet Count 63 Solid 347 Pulled
Trial fitting rudder spar caps and hinge brackets
Trial fitting the rudder control horn
Fitting the rudder spar to the vertical stabilizer to check hardware and clearance, send ing question to Vans re the gap seen below, the plans allow for only one washer between the brackets. I don't think their should be a gap otherwise it will pinch when tightened, may be by design but it does not look right to me. (Note the spar holes and the brackets were pre-drilled and are self aligning)
Priming for assembly
