Default RE: I'm making the Stinger again

Great lay up Don, I really enjoyed it and feel I learned a few new things to try. I was not quite sure, but it looked like you use the 1.4 oz. (whole side) for the outer layer, a 6 oz. second layer (whole side) and a second 6 oz. layer (doubler layer) only from the wing mount foward? I know you used carbon tow as reinforcements too, just wondering if the 7.4 oz. tail section is stiff or a little flexable? I am gussing all the curves in the tail area will give it a lot of stiffness that would not be there if the area was flat or not curved.

Really enjoyed it Don, Now do the next one showing it painted in the mold!
