Ok, NOW the rudder is complete...?
Fabricated and installed the upper mounting points. Also riveted the control horn/lower mounting point, and the upper & lower spar fairings.
Stupidly I decided to hand rivet the upper mounting points... "It's hardly worth starting the compressor for 8 rivets..." yeah right, they're A5 and take a bit more force than A4's. Wised up and air riveted the rest.
That should be it for the rudder apart from trimming the nose skin to clear the elevator. I'll leave that until the fuselage is done.
