Default RE: C-130 updates

Well guys, I'm back. After a long hibernation.... oh... did I say that? Well, I dusted off the C-130 frame and plans this weekend and started putting ribs in the vert. stab. I think I am at least going to get some major work done by the end of this week. One question arose last night when I was mocking up the fit between the rear body and horizontal stab. Did any of your stabs fit perfect in the saddle? I followed the approximate cuts on the plans, and the rear of the stab hangs over the rear of the saddle. Is this normal?
And did anybody put ribs in the fuse to support the fiberglass?
