Default Total beginner questions

Hello all,
Six months ago my wife bought me two sets of plans for Spitfire ( Mick Reeves ) 1/6 and 1/4 scale. Now the cold weather is setting in I thought I would have a go. I have never built a plane before so forgive my ignorance. You would say start smaller and work your way up , and I suppose your right but my passion for spitfire is well , huge.
I have started to put the tail together and though probably obvious to yourselves how do you install the hinges. The tail has not yet been glued only assembled to get a picture for the construction. Can you help. I feel that I may have to cut the spar in order to install ( My Thoughts )
I have started the fuselage constuction and found this a relatively straight forward , but in saying that I have done the top and bottom and glued to crutch prior to covering the top section. Will this matter ?
Kind Regards
Scott
