April 24, 2009 - Super Goblin Tailplane center section

Hi Lynn,

After 2 months of "normal" work and a long unfair honey-do-list, I got back to working on the Super Goblin. So back to the tailplane and a question:

On the the drawing, ZK30, it is a note "infill locally with spruce". Is that for the center section only or is it for the 3 bays in the center? Here is a picture of the section in question. (Still no plywood and the MDF is just to jig things).

Robert


Hi Robert,

It's just the centre-bay, to back up the stirrup block where the tailplane mounting bolts pass through.

It's all looking so neat. I can't wait to see the assembly. :0)

Cheers,
Lynn


Thanks Lynn,

How about the plywood on the forward spar on the tailplane, is it also going to be 45 degree?

Robert


Hi Robert,

No, for economy I'd use vertical play grain on the foward spar web.

Lynn
