My RV-8 build

Number of Hours: 0.50
Manual Reference: Page 6-5
Brief Description: Closing up the vertical stab

The vertical stab was closed up. The squeezer made quick work of the spar to skin rivets and the pop-rivets were used to attach the spar to the ribs. I received my fibreglass order supply from Aircraftspruce. Once I get everything buttoned up, I'll move onto the glass work.
