Covering - Bottom of Left Horizontal Stab

I covered the bottom of the Left Horizontal Stab today and prepped the top fabric with glue for tomorrow.

Spent the last couple of days cutting out the fabric for the interior and the remaining tail pieces.

Interior: There are normally five pieces that cover the interior cargo area, but I'm only covering the sides and leaving the top open. This allows me access to the fuselage framework to hang my fuel filters/cutoff valves. That frame work also provides additional places to attach cargo tie downs should they be needed.

Tail Feathers: I cut out all the remaining pieces for the tail; right and left rudder, top and bottom left horizontal stabilizer, and top and bottom left elevator.

Friday, I covered the bottom of the left elevator. Saturday morning I did the final shrink on it and proceeded to cover the top.
