Default RE: TFGE F4U Corsair 60 Kit Build

O.K.,

It's Veterans Day, here's a shout out to all who have served and their family's and friends who supported them and their sacrafices. I'm retired Navy, did 20 years and now I'm wondering where did all the time go; again I salute all veterans and their family's and friends.

I have made a little more progress by completeing the final shaping of my elevators. Once I complete each elevators shape then it was time to mark and cut all my hinge points. With the hinge points cut from the elevators leading edge; I had to drill out all hinge holes, and the control horn holes. Once each hinge was placed at the correct depth the next thing to do was mark each location for the hinge on on my horizontal stab. I used my robarts hinge drill jig on the stab to drill each hinge hole, here are a few pics of the almost final stab & elevators.
