Default RE: Impact

Hello Magne,

I had installed a rear former and a horizontal plate, just as is recommended in CARFs update on their website. I also had installed a bulkhead directly behind the canopy. From that bulkhead to the rear former I installed a 1" thick piece of foam horizontally. It was glued to the sides of the fuse and to the former . The break in the fuse was right at the former. The glue joint between the former and the foam stiffner had not broken all the way through. I had my elevator servo mounted between the wing. Except for using a bellcrank in the tail with pull pull cables back to the servo, and real Robart hinge points, the tail assembly was stock.
