Didn't forget the attach strips. They are already riveted on to the rudder.
I'm going to put an email into Van's and see if by chance I got the wrong
rudder bottom.
(I re-read the message I posted.. and it may have been a bit unclear. The
rudder fairing is too short by 1/2". I'll find out from Van's. If anyone
still has there rudder fairing un-attached, couldn't measure it and let me
know how long it is.)

Someone a whole lot smarted than me (doesn't take much) suggested RTV instead of
ProSeal in the rudder trailing edge. Lot easier to clean up, just as good,
cheaper, etc. Any comments or suggestions?

I don't think RTV has the same quality of adhesion or durability as ProSeal.
I recommend getting a can of ProSeal, using what you need for the control
surfaces, and keep the can in the refrigerator until you get to the Fuel
Tanks. (I've had my original can for over a year now.)

We are working on a 9A and a 7A in our shop. I can not believe that you
guys are using proseal on the trailing edges. This is one messy product.
We set our selves up with a large back bucking plate and plywood to keep
piece good and level. We set a good straight 2" x 4" on top of surface and
set two bags of gun shot to hold everything nice and straight. We did our
back riveting with a small mushroom head on our rivetting tool. Just be
careful and steady and it came out great.

I agree. These are not that hard to do. Clean and simple is better. Remember
proseal is not light, and you need to balance the control surfaces with lead,
also not light. I see no reason to smear this stuff in there. Won't make it
fly better.

I used the System Three T88 structural epoxy clecoed
it to the elevator spar (same hole pattern) wiped the
excess off with vinegar and let it set for a couple of
days. Worked fine.
