Play between left and right trim tabs

Just a heads up. I noticed movement between the left and right sides of the stabilator trim tabs. This aircraft had SB 18-02-03 c/w two years ago, by replacing the inboard ribs.

I found that the five rivets between HS-1220 and HS-1222 were loose. Once play like this happens, it tends to get worse quickly.

So be sure to give the trim tabs a wiggle on preflight.
