Outboard end ...yes... in line with the end rib of the stab/fin.. inboard
end.. do not be in a rush to trim them. It can be nicely fitted to the
fuselage to need nothing but a rubber edging to fill the gap between the
two.

Hi all
I wanted to double check something that wasn't overly clear in the
manual.
When trimming the leading edge skins on the fin and stabs,I am assuming
they ere trimmed flush and parallel to the ends.I apologise if this
seems like a stupid question.

Any words of wisdom appreciated.
thanks

Right! I just took a large rubber band and stretched it around even with
the rib edge. It's easy to move it until it's exactly even with the edge
and symetrical. Then use a marker and make your line.
