I purchased an installed but unused Terra transponder on eBay. This will go in storage for a while. I've placed connector diagrams elsewhere on this website.

At this point I've placed the rear spar assembly into the Horizontal Stabilizer. The next step is to squeeze the rivets holding the spar to the skins.

Ugh. I realized I inadvertently installed a few rivets in the left stab that should not be installed until the fairings are being attached. I've drilled these rivets out and a couple of the holes are now slightly oversize - I may need to use 'oops' rivets here. I've also marked one rivet which is a little undersqueezed, I'll buck or squeeze it to have a correct shop head.
