Fuselage Stringers

[bbryan]

Having questions where the fuselage side stringers go at the tail end. Manuel says to tie the ends together but cant figure out if they pass thru the frame or stay on the outside all the way back. Seems they have quite a bow. Anyone have a pic of the tail end of the side stringers?

Shape the ends to fit into the cross tube. Refer to Detail "C" of the stringer installation. Hers's how finished ends look:

Bob,

Here is a photo down the side from the back. Hit your + + key a couple times and focus in on the detail

Good info guys. Now I can move on to more complicated building. Its amazing how you can get hung up on the simplest things. If I had installed them yesterday they would have been WRONG. Built 2 wings perfect but can't get a stick glued on the side.
Thanks again !

Looking at the two pics above I see what appears to be a contradiction. Dave's photo shows the stringer ending at the larger (7/16) tube that runs diagonally and Mark's shows it ending further back at the smaller (3/8) tube that runs nearly vertically. My manual show it as Mark has it, but I am finding that this requires the stringer to bend out and around the large diagonal tube. Any thoughts on this?

Mine ran back to that same point too Steve. The stringer does have a slight bulge to it at that point. That is based on what John Mc told me in a separate email.
