It wasn't as hard as I thought. Not quite as smooth a transition as I would like, but it works.

Don't trust plans! I built the fin as per the plans. When doing some color research tonignt I discovered that the A1E's fin makes a smooth transition to fuselage. Too late to fix without a major rework. UGH!!

Starting at spar, apply glue to every other stringer and trailing edge and to ribs at each end. Gently fold sheet over contour, pressing with both hands till it smoothly fits, then pin trailing edge till dry.

Pinning at trailing edge and each extra strip, also at tip, I glue all edges from the top, leaving the leading edge till last after all have dried.

3 1/16 X 1/8 stringers glued to top of lower ribs ending at rib 6. This will give a curved airfoil on bottom. Ending stringers at rib 6 allows 1/16 sheet to flatten out at tips.
