Brief Description:  Prepared horizontal stab for final riveting

Adjusted the work stand to position the horizontal stabilizer at comfortable height for riveting the rear spar, end and root ribs. I am using the same procedure for the horizontal stabilizer as used for the vertical stabilizer. That is, deburring the holes a second time, taping rivets and squeezing with the pneumatic tool. By the way, I use a couple differnt C yokes in the squeezer to get all the rivets. Some rivets are in tight spaces (leading edges) and are easier to access with an alternate yoke.
