I'm building an all wood airplane. The skin is 1/32, 1/16 & 1/8 plywood. Do
the
scarf joints that are required to join the plywood together need to fall on
the
underlying structure or can they be located where the plywood spans the
structural members? Thanks!

Check Manual 18. Scarf joints can be anywhere == as long as they are of
the required angle (12:1 minimum) and are properly glued (good
compression along the length of the joint).
