Step 1: Make the F-1011D Horizontal Stabilizer Attachment Bar Support Angle from a length of AA6- .125x3/4x3/4 angle using the dimensions in Figure 1. The part is symmetrical about the center-line.  
Step 2: Make the F-1012D Up Elevator Stop from a length of AA6- .125x3/4x3/4 angle using the dimensions in Figure 2. The part is symmetrical about the center-line.

Note: With the top skins in position, the tailcone is torsionally ridge. It is now safe to drill the F-1014 Aft Deck to the underling structure. The F-1075 Aft Top Skin will tend to pull the F-1032 Longerons outward, therefore, make sure the clamps have kept the apex of the longerons even with the edge of the aft deck. If not, loosen the clamps and reposition the longerons.

 

Step 3: Make sure that the line drawn on the F-1010B Spacer (see Page 10.10, Step 3) is centered in the holes in the F-1014 Aft Deck then match-drill the four holes of the aft deck into the spacer and the F-1010A Horizontal Stabilizer Attachment Angle using a #30drill. Be sure to cleco.

 

Step 4: Match- Drill all the side holes of the Aft Deck (including the outboard holes in the F-1011B Stop Doubler) into the F-1032 Longerons with a #30 drill. Drill square to the deck,

Final-Drill the two holes (see figure) common to the aft deck, longerons and F-1010A Horizontal Stabilizer Attachment Angle using a #12 drill.

 
Step 5: Final-Drill the four 1/8" holes of the F-1011B Stop Doubler (common to the F-1014 Aft Deck and F-1011 Bulkhead) with a 330 drill, and the middle two 3/32" holes with a #40 drill.
