Ready for closing

Looking good. Tomorrow, I will rivet the ends and start on the trailing edge. The instructions say to follow the same instructions for the trailing edge as the rudder. Someone suggested that I use T-88 epoxy on the wedge to hold things together. T-88 is supposed to be a little bit flexible, unlike other epoxies which get brittle when they dry. I am going to try to look around at some hobby shops to see if I can get some locally. Otherwise I will have to wait several days for delivery from Aircraft Spruce. If I can't find any T-88 locally, I will go ahead and use Proseal like I did on the rudder.
