Finished Horizontal Stabilizer Fabric Covering

We had previous cut the finishing tape to be installed on the hinge side of the horizontal stabilizer, including cutting the holes for the hinge points.  We then installed the tapes finishing the fabric covering of the horizontal stabilizers.

Next up are the two elevators.  One elevator is straight forward, but the other one has the trim tab servo mount plate and trim tab cut-out to deal with.  We cut four pieces of fabric that we will using in covering the elevators.  The hardest part in cutting the fabric was trying to arrange the parts to minimize the wasted fabric.  Hours: 2.5

HAPPY NEW YEAR EVERYONE!
