    From: "Perry, Phil" <Phil.Perry@netapp.com>
          
      I've reached the point of trimming the counterbalance weights for the
      elevators.
      
      Without having a chance to balance the elevators first, trimming these
      weights make me a bit nervous.  It seems like there is the possibility
      that Vans estimates could allow for too much removal.
      
      If I trim the weights as the plans describe, is there still more than
      enough lead remaining to balance the control surfaces later?
      
      If so, what's the process for removing the lead from a counterbalance
      weight that's already in place?  A drill?
      
      Thanks,
      Phil

      Yup....drill out the amount needed to bring it into balance. Adding it in i
      s a little tougher, but easily done casting some lead sheet to go under the
       attach bolts.

      Thanks Rick..
      
      Even though the plans don't call for it, I'm assuming I should go ahead
      and torque them down now.
      
      Thanks,
      Phil
