3) Slide the vertical stabilizer back in
place. Using a triangle, check to ensure that
the vertical stabilizer is aligned 90º to the hori-
zontal stabilizer.
4) When you are sure that everything is
aligned correctly, mix up a generous amount of
Flash 30 Minute Epoxy. Apply a thin layer to the
mounting slot and to bottom of the vertical sta-
bilizer mounting area. Apply epoxy to the bot-
tom and top edges of the filler block and to the
lower hinge also. Set the stabilizer in place
and realign. Double check all of your measure-
ments once more before the epoxy cures. Hold
the stabilizer in place with T-pins or masking
tape and remove any excess epoxy using a
paper towel and rubbing alcohol. Allow the ep-
oxy to fully cure before proceeding.
Fill epoxy.
2) While holding the vertical stabilizer
firmly in place, use a pen and draw a line on
each side of the vertical stabilizer where it
meets the top of the fuselage.
