Okay David here we go. The wing and stab. have been glued at the breaks. I fiber glassed the wing joint with two layers top and bottom. The stab. joint was also reinforced. Balsa saddles were glued in for the stab. installation. After it was installed I added fillets of epoxy and micro-balloons. There were tares in the fus. around the canopy area. The back side was cleaned with acetone and fiber-glassed with 4 oz. cloth. The cracks on the outside are filled with epoxy and micro-balloons. Two of the worst areas were filled with Bondo. I have been wet sanding the fus. prepping it for primer.
