Brief Description:  Stabilizer Install 5

Took the new right side stabilizer mount brackets to the hanger, clecoed them to the fuselage, then ensured the stabilizer was level horizontally, level in pitch, and not twisted. Once everything was set correctly, I marked the bolt holes through the existing holes in the stabilizer's internal brackets, drilled them out, then reassembled everything in place. It all fits well now.

I also continued trimming the rudder leading edge skin to conform with the shape of the saddle that runs along the top of the horizontal stabilizer. Still some work left on that piece.
