in the middle of the stabilizer.
q Measure and draw a centerline on the trailing edge of the stabilizer.
q Measure and draw a centerline on the bottom of the stabilizer mounting
platform on the fuselage.
q Set the stabilizer onto the stabilizer mounting platform, then line up the
centerline you drew on the stabilizer with the centerline you drew on the
fuselage.

even with the back edge of the fuselage, hold only the trailing edge of the
stabilizer in position, using a T-Pin.
