Brief Description:  Wing root fairings

Wing root fairings

I wasn't happy with the fit of the supplied parts, which may have warped over the 20 years since they were imported to Australia, so I taped up the wing roots to match-mould new carbon fibre fairings instead and then set about filleting the area with moulding wax. It was a slow process at 10 degrees C as the wax goes hard very quickly after kneading it warm.

I want the leading edge part to overlap the rear fairing, so I'll have to fit that before laying up the front fairing. Either way, both fairings will have wider flanges than the originals, which will make screwing them to the fuselage much easier. I can use fewer screws in carbon too.
