Mike, I used the leading edge material on the outboard edges of all parts and trailing edge material on only the trailing edges. Yes, the thicknesses don't match (especially rear outboard corners of horizontal stabilizer), but tapering or shimming is pretty easy. I've seen piets that used beam material (hinge edge) for the outboard edges and that seemed to work too. I like how mine turned out, but I would entertain the idea of using beam material for the inboard edges of the elevators.Tip: Watch the overall height of the rudder, I took 1/2 inch off bottom.JoeSpring, TX>From: "Michael Conkling" >Reply-To: pietenpol-list(at)matronics.com>To: >Subject: Pietenpol-List: Re:Tail Feathers>Date: Thu, 18 Oct 2001 21:02:29 -0500>>>>Hi there!>>Got a good question for you guys that have your tail feathers finished -->which cross-sections are used for the ends of the rudder, elevators & etc.>It looks like BH used the leading edge shape for the ends of the horizontal>stabilizer -- did he use the main beam (hinge attach) shape for the ends of>the rudder & elevators (??) or something else?>>Mike>Pretty Prairie, KS>>>----- Original Message ----->From: >To: >Subject: Re: Pietenpol-List: Cockpit picture oops>>> >> > In a message dated 10/16/01 10:12:18 AM Eastern Daylight Time,>steve(at)byu.edu> > writes:> >> > > http://Aircamper.byu.edu website after several requests for information>and> > photos of the Green 'AirCamper' with the 'E' on the tail.> >> > Best Regards,> >> > Steve E. >>> >> > Would there be a chance that any of the pictures I took last year have>made> > it to that same website ?> >> > -dennis> >> >>>________________________________________________________________________________Date: Fri, 19 Oct 2001 12:19:31 -0400
