Default YIKES .... TopCap Flutter

Looked like a fish? Been there. Broke the fuse aft of the main wing, top to bottom. I said the hell with it, if I can't fix it without taking the covering off, it's time to get a Sledge. Mixed up 4 oz of 2 hour epoxy and injected it into the fuse with a big syringe in a couple places, clamped the fuse flat, and put tape over the split covering. Haven't got to buy that Sledge yet (happened last summer). You're mileage may vary!
