Default RE: FOX COMPOSITES Bae HAWK, Build thread

Disappointingly, the aileron horn support was unusable, comprising a sliver of liteply slapped into place with some filler which was too weak to hold the threaded rod horn which rocked about – Pic 13. Simply blobbing epoxy in there wasn’t a solution as I couldn’t have controlled its installation satisfactorily. So I made new aileron horn mounting blocks from beech engine bearer as seen in Pics 14 and 15.
