Assembly of the rear fuselage begins by gluing the 1/8" balsa
vertical keel parts together.
The horizontal 1/8" balsa keel pieces are glued in place after the
vertical pieces are glued together. The tabs fit in the vertical keel
slots.
Glue the rear fuselage formers to the keel parts. Use the slots in
the keel parts to locate each former segment. The rear former 13
is not installed at this time.

Bend the tail wheel leg using 3/32" piano wire. Be sure to place
the length of 1/8" brass tubing on the leg above the 90 degree
bend before bending the pushrod tiller arm. Make up the
pushrod link end from 1/8" brass tubing and solder it to the tiller
arm. Bind the brass tubing on the leg to the 1/8" plywood center
tail wheel support piece. Glue the 1/32" plywood face support
face pieces to the center support piece. Be careful not to get any
glue in the pivot tube.
Glue part KE to the bottom of the horizontal keel pieces at the rear.
Use the slot formed by the horizontal keel pieces to locate KE.
Glue the tail wheel assembly to the lower vertical keel. The brass
tube fits in the slot formed by the rear of the vertical keel and part
KE. The tail wheel leg should rotate freely without any interference
from the structure.
Bend the rudder control horn using 3/32" piano wire. Slide a 1 1/8"
length of 1/8" brass tubing on the wire after bending the push rod
link end and before bending the rudder tiller arm. Slide the 1/8"
plywood rudder horn support pieces on to the assembly as shown.
DO NOT APPLY ANY GLUE. These parts can slide freely for now.
Dry fit the rudder horn assembly and stab saddles to the rear
fuselage keel assembly. Also dry fit former 13 to help place the
stab saddles. DO NOT GLUE former 13. Adjust the vertical
position of the rudder horn brass tubing so the pushrod attachment
end is far enough below the horizontal keel pieces to clear a
clevis. When the stab saddles and rudder horn assembly are in
place glue those parts being careful not to glue former 13. Remove
former 13. Glue strips of 1/8" square balsa to the sides of the tail
wheel support assembly with the edge lined up with the bottom of
the vertical keel.
Make up and install the link between the rudder horn and tail
wheel. It is suggested that one threaded and one solder celvis be
used for the link ends.
Glue the rear fuselage structure to the forward section. The slots in
rear section former 8B fit over the tabs extending from forward
section former 8A.
