Drilled right elevator skin
Measured and drilled the skin to the skeleton. The tip rib remains, but 8 will install the elevator to the HS first to get it as straight as possible.

Riveted the stiffeners to the skin
Dimpling and riveting of stiffeners to the left elevator skin. I am a bit confused regarding the sequence of the trim and the cutting of the skin and riveting of the skeleton. Have to study the drawings closely as the manual doesn't make 100% sense.
