I would think if you can salvage the rudder spar, that would save a lot of work in getting the new one to fit.   
 
Hi Kevin,
 
I think I'll skip the glue, but I will be salvaging the skeleton of both the aileron, and rudder.  In fact, the new skins just got delivered a few minutes ago by FedEx Saver (cheaper than 3 day UPS apparently).   At first, I thought it would be easier to make a new skeleton, since there were so many holes to match, but when I looked at the plans, I remembered that all those holes in the middle are just skin stiffeners.  I just have to decide now if it's easier to bring home the tools, and do it here, or do it at the hanger.  
 
Thanks,
Rusty (got skins)
