I would avoid notching the beam there if possible.  While it would probably be
fine, any notches on the outside surfaces of a beam will weaken it somewhat even
if there is a piece glued back into the notch.  Picture a floor beam and running
a pipe through it, you wouldn't want to put a notch at the bottom of the
beam as it effectively reduces the thickness (strength) of the beam.  There is
still a lot of the stringer strip left once it is blended in.

I sanded them down. They seem plenty strong. I did add a small piece betwee
n the upper and lower rib just to add some rigidity.=C2-

still working on getting fabric on the tail feathers, I got the fabric on the rudder
shrunk. I was going to work on tapes then decided that 3 inch tapes would
work best for the edges on the rudder. I didn't have 3 inch taps so ordered
some. Then worked on getting fabric on the vertical fin.
