Rudder stiffeners cut to length and clecoed.

The stiffeners are now prepared for both sides of the rudder. The top skin having been backdrilled and clecoed to the skin earlier. That is a very scary moment, absolute concentration is essential if you don't want to delay your project awaiting replacement parts from Mr Van's.

You may just be able to make out the 'two' alignment lines from the forward spar. the black line is the spar edge and then the plans require an off set of 1/4 inch for the stiffner alignment.

The 'lower' skin is just about to have the stiffeners back drilled after double checking I've got each stiffner in it's correct location.
