Flap Actuator (2)

2 hours
On to the next steps!  Before the lower skin goes on the aft fuselage for good I need to install this flap actuator tube.  The first step was to install a small angle on each side between the lower splice piece and the skin.  It was fairly confusing at first to figure out how these were supposed to go, but they only really fit one way.


Next I had to finagle the actuator tube through the holes in the side skin to get it into position.  I had to enlarge one of the holes a little to get it through but eventually it went in.




Next I just need to install the delrin mounting blocks and rivet the angles, and this part will be done for now.
