Today I balanced the right elevator. Since it's hanging on the hinges I
figured that it would be a good time to do that. The lead weight was way
too heavy so I ended up removing a bunch. I frankly could not believe how
much material I had to remove to get the thing in balance. |

There we go... perfect! People say that it'll be wrong again once the
elevator is painted. We'll see... |

I also had to cut a clearance for the elevator horn. I actually should
have done this while I was building the horizontal stabilizer. |

This is really cool. I could sit and move this thing up and down for
hours. Here's forward stick |
