Empennage Fairing Sanding, Fitting (Empennage)
2.0 Hours

Today I spent quite a while sanding the empennage fairing. It is getting very close to finished.

The fit is very good around the HS/fuselage interface here on the right side.

The fit to the horizontal stabilizer and vertical stabilizer is quite good as well.

Also good on the left side.

And at the HS/fuse interface on the left side.

There were two small spots that still had gaps, so I taped and filled those with epoxy/flox. I still have a little bit of sanding to do where the edges are a little too thick along the vertical stabilizer and then do some filling and priming. However, I am very pleased with how this has come out.
