April 12, 2009: P. 06-02 Vertical Stab













P. 06-02 VS hinge bracket preparation and assembly. Took care to separate and deburr VS-1210 brackets and spacers (VS-1211A&B). Having read tips in the forum, after match drilling and deburring, squeezed rivets in several passes. First setting the rivet with light pressure, just enough to set it in place and moved to next until all were stable in place. Checked that the bearing could still move freely at each squeezed. After about 5 passes, rivets were done and bearing still free.
