Subject: | Bending the flanges on the elevator trim tab |
--> RV9-List message posted by: "smittysrv" <smitty@smittysrv.com>
I was following the instructions on building the rv-9a trim tab to the letter.
It said to rivet the trim tab horns to the trim tab skin. Now it says to bend
the outer flanges of the trim tab skin. How can you do this with the trim tab
horns riveted on?
Thanks!

I bent first and riveted the horns second - this produced its own challenge
riveting along the edge of the bend.
I needed two tries to get this done well and the key seemed to be to make a
bending block EXACTLY as shown in the photo; clamped as shown.
