Vertical Stabilizer spars and ribs

Fluted and edge-finished the ribs, and cleco-ed ribs and spar together for the vertical stabilizer.
Edge-finishing is to round-off the sharp edges left by the machines which press the parts at the factory.
Fluting is to straighten the ribs as they come out of the factory slightly bowed, again due to how they are stamped.
