I've got in some work recently in between helping with the Czech Mate build.

Got the tips installed on the horizontal last week and was having trouble loading the pictures. The elevators have not been shaped as of yet I will have to wait until the fuselage is being build to decide on how I want to do the linkage for them so I decided to continue on to the vertical stab.

Here I pre cut the sheeting for each of the vertical halves.

Then following the same procedure as the horizontal. Framed up the two halves, shaped, sheeted and installed the vertical saddles on each half. Cut the excess sheeting, glued the two completed halves together and attached the top tip and leading edge . I will complete the final shaping when the fuselage if framed up.
