The rear spar of the stab is supposed to fit flush against the rear-most bulkhead. No problem. However the flanges of the rear spar foul the lower 3 or 4 rivets that connect the fuse side skin to the rearmost bulkhead. You can see it in the following pic. Has anyone else had this issue ? Any thoughts on a solution - just bend the spar flanges until they're out of the way ? http://rascal.gerf.com/BuildLogService/userfiles/d7b30941a79a47b68567721f591657b0.jpg __g__ ========================================================== Gerry Filby gerf@gerf.com Tel: 415 203 9177
