Left Elevator Trim Access


I ended up dimpling the nutplates, then backriveting the nutplates onto the stiffener, then backriveting the stiffener onto the Skin. I have seen on other sites where the plate/stiffener ends up warping until it is mated with the skin and in final assembly.. Dimpling the nutplates and backriveting to the plate before back riveting it to the skin made it next to perfect. Was really excited how this piece went together.
