I had a pretty hard landing this last weekend. It was my first time at the field with no help. When I landed my plane the second time the fin/rudder broke off. There is a little glue and wood on the elevator. Should I sand everything smooth and then glue it back on or should I replace the bottom spar?

You could probably just stick it back on with medium CA.

that's the first thing I would try.

I agree with Minn, almost. I'd use epoxy.

I agree with minnflyer med ca just make sure its straight . I just did the same thing to my areomaster just glued it back on ironed the covering back down gave it the hang test it looks a little ruff but it will fly for the rest of the season and than we will give it new clothes this winter

Have to agree, med CA and make sure it is straight.

Thanks for the input guys. I am hoping to get back in the air this weekend.
