3 Rear Fuselage
The rear fuselage is composed of four longitudinal tubes, connected by the vertical
fin at the tail end and braced by a single frame half way down. Steel cables are used
diagonally to stiffen the structure, with tension applied by turnbuckles fitted to two of
the cables.
Once again, do not tighten the nuts until the assembly has been completed.
3.1 Tail End
a) Fit the rudder post (the trailing edge of the vertical fin) between the two pairs
of saddle washers shown in Figure 57,58, 59.
Do not forget the steel T-piece to which the horizontal stabiliser halves
attach, and the extra flat washer on the lower bolt,
Some difficulty may be encountered with access to the various nuts in
this area. A useful trick to hold a nut to the end of a spanner is a piece
of sticky tape placed over the end of the spanner.
Tighten these particular nuts now using Loctite, as they are very difficult
to reach later.
b) Fit the stainless-steel bracket in front of the rudder post, and attach the upper
pair of longitudinal tubes

.
Figure 57 vertical fin and horizontal stabiliser rear mountings.
c) Attach the bottom end of the vertical fin to the bracket and longitudinal tubes
tu4
in a similar manner Figure 58.
If you do not have suitable supports or a helper to hold the front ends of
the tubes at this stage it can be helpful to mount the bracing frame (as
detailed below) to the lower pair of longitudinal tubes, followed by
