Opinions, please....

After I finish my flaps and ailerons this spring, I need to invert the 
airplane to super-fil and prime the bottom of my LNC2.  I also need to 
install the horizontal and vertical tails.  Which do you think I should do 
first?

If I put the tail on first, there's some risk of dinging the tails as I turn 
it over.  Also, it will probably have to be higher at the back end then I 
have had it before.  Neither are big problems, but it's easier to do with the 
tail off.

If I put the tail on first, then I get to super-fil and prime the underside 
of the tail-to-tailcone junction when it is inverted, which should be easier 
but not a big deal either way.

I'd appreciate any insights for the rest of the gang, in case I've overlooked 
anything....
