RE: CMP Hellcat
Nice job Hal! I looked at your Horizontal Stab fix for awhile, and you inspired me into trying the one piece stab slide in...
Transfer a cut pattern from the inside rib on to the tail section on both sides of the fuse, and make your initial rough cut. Next, make a center section for the horizontal stab and build the stab as one piece. Then, just slide it through. May have to make a few adjustments to get it where you want it, then Gorilla glue it on the insides and add a little filler on the outside. Next add the elevators, etc...
I'll let you know how it comes out!
ARFs are so much easier than having to build something.....
