RE: Adding slats to a wing
I think it'll work out well, Bruce. Lots of figuring out the details of exactly how I'm going to do things. I agree with your idea about 'glasing the rear of the slat and pressing it against the "first-cut nose" of the wing while the epoxy cures. I also need to think about how I'm going to approach mounting the slat to the wing (it'll mimic the stock mounting) and what sort of reinforcement I'll need at the attachment points. I've read some Storch build logs sp I can more or less use what worked there.
I need to ask around and find an experienced foam-cutter in my area to do the cutting; I could build a hot-wire cutter and do it myself, but I'd be hesitant to learn on this wing (although I do plan to buld a foam cutter some day).
