425 3/32
225 1/8
10 3/16
10 5/32

Interesting - it would appear that Avery has reduced the number of
clecos included in the RV kit. I just checked my records to confirm
what I got with my September order:
325 3/32
175 1/8
10 5/32
10 3/16
In any case, I ordered more of the 3/32 because I ran a little short
during the H stab and according to Pete will need even more on the
tailcone. My guess is that the large wings and cabin will need more
than the kit contained as well.

I misspoke in my earlier post - I meant to say that I ran a little
short during the elevator construction.
