pilot side, 1500+ hrs, hard aero in the past, 160hp O-320 FP
looks like I have a project while the weather sucks. Rian from Van's inspected it today and wasn't overly concerned. who knows how long it has been cracked. I will reinforce it. he did find an outside elevator jam nut only finger tight [same side, now that I think about it].
BTW - I bought the tail kit from Bill F in TX. those rivets are not of my squeezing. had to reskin the V stab to stop the Keiko jokes since it sort of flopped over to one side a bit.
