From what I have seen, most guys are glassing over the joint between the aft cabin cover and the tailcone joint.

I haven't yet found guidance for that in the plans anywhere. Is there guidance somewhere that I haven't found or is it builder's choice?

You might want to consider glassing over all the rivets (solids or blinds)
imbedded in fiberglass (lid and cowl?). If you don't, you can count on
seeing them again in about a hundred hours or so. Rivet heads will pop
through the paint.

You'll discover that there's a tiny angle change there anyway. Perfect for filling. Just run a couple of strips of tape a couple of inches away on either side for a stop so you don't have "feathering to infinity."

Showplanes is coming out with a composite transition all the way to the vertical. Might even make it as nice as if Geoff had done it.
