But being much too busy rebuilding the plane, I was willing to give it a try. Works perfect. I think the reason for no flutter problems is that the entire horizontal assembly, including the elevator is under load. If you used a tab you might actually reduce that load in the wrong place and end up with flutter. Looks better too without extra crap hanging outside.

Then dumped the gas out and and immediately checked it for softness or deterioration of the glue joint. Nothing noted, but that doesn't mean it won't go bad in ten years...
