Elevator and Horizontal Stabilizer Tip Fairings

I got started on the elevator tip fairings by cutting the relief notch to allow them to clear the counterweights and trimming the flange so that the tip can fit in completely.


Here is the tip fully in place.  There’s some unevenness between the weight and the tip, but I’ll fill that with flox when I bond this in place.  This entire front edge will be glassed and filled.


Here’s the horizontal stabilizer tip fairing rough cut and in place.  I opened the gap here up to 3/16 to give me some room to glass and fill in this area.


Here is the right side.  Clearly a lot of filling and sanding needs to be done to get this looking good.
