Default RE: GP Lancair wing failure

I am a firm beliver in fiberglassing all center sections upon completion of gluing the wing ribs together, good complete coat over the entire root area / Let cure over night then peal back monokote from center section 2 inches then add the fiberglass - top and bottom. 24 hour procedure to save a lifetime of heartache. Had a 60 size Stick ARF fold the wings on me, and the manufacturer had a warning about the center sections design not strong enough- I heard about a later date. That set me in motion!
