    If anyone is interested I have the new rear system and a Corvair flight engine here at Oshkosh. It is at my campsite so if you want to see them just give me a call and I will meet you and be glad to show them to you.

    Danny, Try making some shims from 0.040 6061-T6. My spars were also bowed slightly as you described. I inserted a picture below. If you can't see it, try viewing the email as HTML, or email me off list and I can send you the file. The two parts in the center of the picture are the attachment doublers, not shims.

I'm basically having trouble lining up all the holes. I did find that towards the outside of the stabilizer, the two spars are drawn in, closer to each other (by about 4mm or so if i remember correctly) -- due to ribs 1 & 6 not having a spar doubler underneath it. I have followed the directions closely -- there is no shim to go underneath these ribs.. how have you dealt with this? when looking at the edge of the skin laying on the skeleton, its clear that the spar bows outwards in the center. do i straighten out the spar somehow? how? or do i just like up the two holes at either end of the spar.. clamp.. and start drilling?
