For the RV-7, this kit contains the horizontal and vertical stabilizers, the elevators and the rudder.
Since I’m a complete Noob on building planes, I also ordered the RV Test Project. This enables me to get acquainted with the tools, without fubar-ing my empennage.
Making an international bank transfer is harder than it should be, however once you know how to do it, it’s really simple.

With the empennage order I also received my Van’s Aircraft builder number: 74668.
