Elevator Trim Tab Riveting

BOHICA

Well Known Member
I am at the point of making the elevator trim tab. I have my ribs Pro-Sealed in. Step 6 is to Rivet the E-01406 Trim Tab Top Skin to the E-01405 Trim Tab Spar and aft half of the Trim Tab Hinge. I can't get a squeezer in that space with the hinge in the way with my 2in thin nose yoke as the hinge would get bent and I can't get an angle on it with a bucking bar. :mad::mad:

Any hints? The Pro-Seal is drying.
 
Use a longeron yoke, OR use the extra height flat rivet sets.

PM me if you want to come to GTU and borrow them.
