Thank you, Buzz. This is exactly what I was looking for. I made an error when I called the fuze side componet a "Spar". It is actually one of the lower/left side structure "sticks". I cannot seem to come up with the correct terminology for this componet.
In any event, I think that if I make a cut something like this: |___________| on the forward "stick", damaged "stick",and the rear sheeting I could then raise the covering and reposition/glue the damaged "stick", then use the packing tape. It's worth a try anyhow. Thank you so much for your advice and assistance.
Best Regards,
Bob
