Stab Strengthening Cont.

Installed former(s) F9 to back of stab (figure 1) and glued with thick CA.

The next high stress area is right where the ailerator connects to the stab. I used 1/4 inch ply cut to the same dimensions as the fuse doubler (figure 2). This ply serves three purposes: 1. gives additional surface area to adhere the fin to, 2. stabilizes the glide tube, 3. reduces vibration to the ailerator.
