I made the parts in CAD much as you explain. However, when one side of the stab is 12" long and the other is 11" long, which side do you duplicate? The measurements are not correct but the idea is the same. This happened on the formers also. The engine is a NIB HP 61 with a flow through muffler. The little girl weighs in a 12lbs, 14lbs wet.

My two 80lb labs were not allowed near the airplanes during the photo shoot. "Tail-o-death" has taken its toll too many times.
