Brief Description:  Fitting the Vertical Stabilizer--Aligning the VS

I temporarily clamped the Vertical Stabilizer assembly to take measurements from the tip of the vertical stablilizer to both tips of the horizontal stabilizer. I then adjusted the vertical stabilizer until the measurements are equal and the stabilizer is truely vertical. (Note the 1/4" offset of the VS to counteract propwash P-factor.) Next I will drill the bolt holes through the stabilizer and the F-712D up-elevator-stop.
