Neither member goes in until the vertical stab construction phase. The N member is best left out so you can angle the edges so that the plywood shear web that supports the front vertical stab spar is fastened to will have full bearing on them. It's a lot easier to do that once the fuselage is constructed and you can make actual measurements and get it dead on, rather than guessing now and having it wrong later (and having to angle them while in place). This is one of many examples in the plans where having a crystal ball would be very helpful... Mark Langford email: N56ML "at" hiwaay.net website: www.N56ML.com
