Aug 30, 2021     12-4: Back to VS fairing - (1.0 hour)       Category: 12: Fairings
Looking over my work on the VS fairing, I realized I had made a bit of a mistake. I filled the front of the fairing to align with the BS but tapered back to meet at the top. I should have done a better job of maintaining the angle of the BS leading edge. Mine had a bend in it.
Decided to punch out the rivets and fix it. Used flow since it is on the leading edge and I want it tough. Sanded out the primer down to bare glass and slathered it on using my long straightedge to check alignment. I think I will also take to opportunity to add a few additional plies of glass on the back side to close the gap with the rudder.
One step forward, two steps back.
