Subject: | Re: Stab Top AFT rivet line (elevator hinge and outboard |
of that
This was probably the most frustrating step on my whole project and could easily
have been avoided. The photo guide calls for you to lay out the rivet line as
they indicate. I used pictures to figure out the adjustments needed and it turned
out very well......only latter, I found out that the holes were PREDRILLED
in the skin going into the other side of the piano hindge(and not in the same
pattern) and I could have simply lined up the two skins of the elevator and
the horizontal stabilizer and had a perfect match of rivets across from one
another. The next step in the photo guide says to mark these holes straight across
to the next skin to make a match BUT, they are now predrilled for you so
you can't do this. I know that structurally mine is fine, but I sure wish I had
noticed the predrilled holes in the following section and matched them back
in the fist section. It would look a lot more uniform to have had them straight
across from each other.

If anyone has a friend or other interested party thinking about building a Zenith
601XL, print them out a copy of the attached file. It reflects a good price
on a partically completed kit, Jabiru 3300A engine & FWF kit, airframe and engine
options, tools, etc, which is a complete list of all items included & original
cost (2006 prices). Thanks.
