Mount right rudder | 12.17.2020

Short one for today. Sanded the repairs to the right rudder and everything looked good, so went ahead and mounted it so that we could get the wing out of the way to make room for the left wing on the sawhorses for inspection/work.

Tip had been hit and micro/cabo came off. Repaired with cabo as the manual recommends for this.

The rudder mounted without much fuss. The Stabells had done a great job mounting the hinges and getting everything lined up when they did this years ago. The right rudder looks like it won't need any shimming (for the first flight at least), seems to line up with the bottom winglet as expected.

And I'll leave you with a video of the rudder in action.
