Today my son and I finished the rudder. Man that was cool to finish the second major piece of the tail kit. I did have some issues with the length of some of those solid rivets. They just seemed too long for the application. In the end they squeezed fine.
Unfortunately I have a week off from building. My wife and I are heading to London in the morning. The anti-servo tabs will have to wait til we return.
On the flying front.. I have my check ride rescheduled for the week after I get back. Hoping to be a sport pilot soon so I can get in lots of practice before the -12 is done.
Here is a not so good picture of the finished rudder.
