Don, I posted a picture with a description. http://www.zenith.aero/photo/elevator-skin-where-it-meets-the-rear-channel?context=album&albumId=2606393%3AAlbum%3A229174
Don,
I'm building from the kit (not scratch) and the V was already CNC cut out of the skin. The interesting thing about it is that when I look at the plans, unless I'm missing something, it specs the V as the same width on the top and bottom, but on my CNC cut skin, the top and bottom have a different width - which gives the V an "angle." I'm not sure why that is. I'll post some pics of it after I get it closed up - I just have one more operation to do on the extrusion that connects the top & bottom horns together and then I'll be riveting.
Angus Watt flies his CH750 out of CYRP also.
