Here you can see that the hole in the bottom of the fuse has been closed up. I used mylar taped around the fuse with wax paper between the mylar and fuse and fiberglassed. It worked very well and I am happy with the results, the outside of the fuse has perfect shape.

I cut the top hatch first in order to make closing the hole easier. I have also made new 1/4 inch ply formers for the wings and engine to mount to.

I am going to lay in CF tape around the fuse at the main former to add some strength and rigidity to the fuse. The formers that have been added to the rear for the elevator servo have stiffened the rear of the fuse quite nicely.
