Subject: RE: Trim tab ribs
My tab turned into nightmare and turned out so badly I think I will redo the
whole elevator. The bend looks terrible and the gap is worse. I would
caution anyone at this step to be very careful as it is hard to get it to
look right and I started to try and fix it and it really messed it up. Even
the Orndorff tape suggests if you start to get into trouble to put in a rib,
I wish I had listened earlier. It looks like the rib would be much better
way to go and Mitch I wonder if you have any pictures or diagrams of how you
did the rib.

For good pix of the trim system and ribs, go here:

This is SDS up in Calgary, and Ross is building an RV6a with a turbo Subaru
2.2. His site is full of great build documentation and pictures... Enjoy.

Thank you for the link. The Trim Tab looks great and I can see that he makes
some great tools. Plan to research more of his site.
Mike
