Brief Description:  Trim Tab Hinge - Part Duex...

The more I looked at the 1/8" over hang of the trim tab, the more I couldn't stand it! So I ordered up a new hinge which came today. Drilling out the rivets wasn't too bad. I used a nice straight piece of wood taped to the trailing edge of the Elevator as a reference, and then redrilled the new hinge. Attached is a "before" and "after" shot. Ah, much better! Now I can sleep at night. All and all it was pretty easy.
