The plans arrived today. I decided to laminate these and file them in transparent pouches in an A3 ring-binder, all of which I got from Rymans.
The plans are a US size (approximately A3) so I needed to trim a little off the end of each page to fit the laminating pouches.
The keen observers will note that these are not the wing plans but the empennage. No, I didn't get these with the wing kit. I just didn't take the pictures until I was doing the empennage plans.
By this point, 28th Feb 2009, Vans had released many updates to the plans. These are all on the "Service Notices" section of the Vans web site:

It is worth keeping an eye on these. I can print these in A4, but that's a bit small, and I don't have an A3 printer at home. I'll need to print these as A3 sheets at work, and re-laminate them.
Important note on the revisions:
The ‘revision level’ of a drawing may or may not change depending on the revision’s significance to the builder.
Vans have this to say about plan revisions:
This link to the Van's Air Force website explains the varying significance of the revisions.
