Aileron Push Rod Assemblies Complete

Published by olanandkate on

I got the three aileron pushrod assemblies assembled and I removed the rear bell crank housing so that I could insert the mid elevator pushrod into place, but I realized I should probably prime the outside of these tubes as well. Unfortunately I’m almost out of primer so I ordered some spray cans of primer from Aircraft Spruce instead of ordering the gallon buckets since I’m pretty much down to the wire here on things that need to be primed. I’ll use the little bit of regular primer I have left to finish these tomorrow, but the spray cans I can use to finish the rest of the parts, etc. Most of my time was spent getting the bell crank housing off as I had to remove the rear covers for the empennage cover first before I could get some of the bolts out that held it down. Either way, I plan to get the tubes primed tomorrow and then install them all.

Edit: After hockey tonight I decided I could do a little bit more so I prepped the elevator idler arm assembly parts for priming tomorrow as well.
