Odd'l Rockets F-104 Starfighter Build, Part 6, Upper and Lower Stabilizers

The fins and all balsa parts were filled with thinned CWF and smooth sanding.

Here they are stuck to masking tape on some scrap cardboard for a single, fairly thick coat of Duplicolor Primer/Filler.

The upper and lower stabilizers are glued opposite each other in a straight line.
The smaller lower stab is glued in line where the engine hook will end up.

In the kit instructions the horizontal stab is glued on first then the small stab cap is glued over that.

Here the horizontal stab is slid into the open slot between the two vertical pieces.
