Van's Aircraft Publishes RV-7 SB

The folks at Van's Aircraft have alerted their builders that RV-7/7A empennage kits shipped between July 1, 2004 and November 9, 2004 may have included an incorrect part.

According to Van's, "The horizontal flange of part HS-710 was trimmed too short. (At least one builder who called 11-10-04 was advised by Van’s tech help staff that the part was acceptable before the problem was correctly identified.) While it is physically possible to install the incorrect part, Van’s recommends that it be replaced with the correct part. If you determine you have received the incorrect part, contact Van’s for a replacement."

Builders who have completed their horizontal stabilizers with the incorrect part should contact Van’s for a reinforcement plan.

Here’s how to tell if the part you received is the correct one:
