Rudder Rework & Snow

I spent a good 2 hours getting the new rudder skin deburred, dimpled and riveting the stiffeners on. I am kind of at a stand still now as I’m waiting for parts to come in which might be a bit longer with all of the snow going on here. Crazy snow and temperatures have covered Oklahoma over the past 5 days. I have been working from home for the past week with the ice that came before the snow. Luckily I’m catching up on some reading and cleaning up the garage so that it’s ready to redo the stiffener work and then getting the rudder put together. I’m super excited to get the parts in!

I also found a really nice and simple paint job for the plane! I really like this simple idea and it’s actually a fairly normal paint scheme as well, but it’s the silver, metallic, blue that they have that also makes it look really nice.
