I wrestled with the Empennage fairing for a couple hours toward
the latter part of last week. My plan
was to get it to a flight ready state, then come back through and clean it up
later. Well that is sure what I did.. From my perspective it is unacceptable for
long term, but definitely safe and fine for the first few flights. I need to go through and do a lot of
fiberglass work on it to make it fit better, but the weather needs to warm up
and I might as well do the fairing work when I am doing the wheel pants and the
gear leg fairings since they are all fiberglass too.
Here are a few shots. The current fairing puckers between screws and it doesn’t really sit well on the leading edge of the horizontal stabilizer. But functional and safe.. yes..
