The inside edge of the elevators and outside faces of the cheek pieces (between the elev.& fuse have been primed, painted, detailed and masked with Mystic transparent tape. All pieces were then glued to the stab, which has already been glassed and sanded w/ another skim coat of resin, using the credit card squeegee and hairdryer treatment to flow it out without too much of a weight penalty. Doing this prep now before gluing it all in place was merely a matter of handling convenience rather than doing so when the plane is finally assembled. Gluing the stab in place is next but not before hairspray gets airbrushed into to interior of the fuse from the wing saddle to the tail.
