After receiving the new HS-708 from Van's earlier this week. I elected to begin to rough fit the Horizontal stabs internal structure together and fastened the parts together using clecos. I did this for two reasons. First, I wanted to see what all of the parts look like when assembled. Secondly, even though the instruction have you build the horizontal stabilizer one side at a time, I envisioned that it would be easier to work on the entire assembly if the center section (HS-710, HS-714, and both HS-00001's) along with the incluson of the HS-609PP on the rear spar.
