Right Elevator Counterbalance Assembly

Thurs 29th Nov 3hrs 20min

Adjusted counterbalance rib flanges to 90 degrees. Fluted ribs. Assembled counterbalance ribs and skins and matchdrilled ribs to ribs and ribs to skin.

I had a little difficulty 'stretching' the counterbalance skin over the ribs, probably because I left the vinyl on the inside. It is amazing the difference this can make. Perhaps if I took it off, I would be able to fit the skin with less difficulty and wouldn't need the protection against scratches that it provides.

No photos again this evening because of my camera problems. However, while messing with it later, I found that if I turn the flash intensity down the photos are fine so hopefully that will be the end of the problems.
