Talking -10 Empennage Wrapped Up!!
Wrapped up the -10 Empennage kit today! Good to have the first kit behind me. Fuselage kit is due before Thanksgiving so just in time to inventory and enjoy turkey day. Like having Christmas in November!:

About 400 hrs. not counting rebuilding the elevator trim tabs 2x and redoing the elevator up stop based on the service bulletin. Also spent extra time building mount brackets for the pitot static system. Most importantly, I really spent a significant amount of time on edge finishing correctly (no cuts or scrapes during assembly) and priming but am really pleased with the outcome. Could have finished in about 7 months but work got in the way for the last 4.
