Brief Description:  Finished Horizontal Stabilizer

Finished riveting the ribs and rear spar of the horizontal stabilizer. The skins on the horizontal stab are .025 inches thick, the same as the vertical stabilizer. These skins are thinner thatn the .031 skins on the RV-6 and RV-8. It's noticably more difficult to get a nice flat and smooth riveted surface with these thinner skins. Oh well, Im sure they save weight. That horizontal stabilizer is huge compare to the -8. But in any case, the horizontal stablizer is complete and built per plans and specifications.
