Default RE: Midwest Extra 300xs Build

Next I placed the rudder and the Vert/stab on the plan and marked the location on each for the hinge doubler blocks and glued them in. I also rounded the leading edge of the vert/stab.

After this is said and done, the rudder I mean, it dosn't appear my concerns of the thin trailing edge and the rib attachment were with any merit. The rudder seams to be pretty strong as built. I still think, however, that Midwest could have done a better job of laying out the sizes on the ribs in the rudder.
