Stabaliser and Rudder

The stabaliser and rudder are now both fully skinned and just need a bit more sanding down. After Christmas I will be installing them into the fuselage. I have started cutting out the ribs for the wing which promises to be a long job!

The stabaliser has ended up looking almost as big as the wing on my Cambrian ME109!

Rudder and Stabaliser

The rudder and stabaliser are coming on nicely. Both have been straight forward to build, with the stabaliser been the easiest as the ribs all had tabs to maintain the correct level while building. The rudder on the other hand didn't, but due to its smaller size it was easy enogh to eye in and make sure it was vertical. Skinning of both will be finished soon and I will then fix them to the fuselarge so that I can complete the skinning of the back end. After that its the wings and the start of covering!
