[Note holes for the vertical stabilizer mounting bolts which will pass from the vertical stab through the fuselage, through the horizontal stab to retainers on the bottom of the fuselage.]
View from top right side of tail section looking slightly forward. [Note horizontal stab inserted into machined slot in fuselage tail section and vertical stab mounting bolts partically inserted into fuselage and horizontal stab. The vertical stab is now ready to be pushed down and into the machined slot in the top of the fuselage]

[Picture of wing warning near elevator. A reminder that just a quick check before flying can save the day!]
[Note panel line detailing... even on the elevator!]
[Picture of throw specifications near elevator.
Never be in doubt... we've printed the throws right into the covering!]
