Top vs bottom of horizontal stab

I just want to make sure that I have this correct. I probably missed it in the plans, but I found a spot that indicated that the brackets on the front spar are on the bottom. I circled the brackets in red in the pic. I want to confirm that I am correct before I start dimpling the skins.

The brackets do mount on the bottom of the spar.

No, the slanted portion goes on the outboard side.
It is meant to match up with the tapper angle of the longeron on each side.

And yes, the brackets are located on the bottom.

Thanks for correcting that Scott. I'm not sure what I was thinking, it's been a while since I completed that step and I remembered it differently. Next time I'll look back at the plans before making another stupid comment ...

Thanks for the clarification. I do have the slanted portion on the outboard side, although it is hard to tell from the pic.
