Sonex B Horizontal Tail Tips

Postby pfhoeycfi » Fri Apr 20, 2018 7:45 pm

I cannot get the fiberglass tip over the outboard rib its so tight. The forward end of the rib is 3/8 wider than the forward end of the fiberglass tip and will not fit. I will probably have to remove the rib and modify it (narrow it) or create a new one. Obviously I haven't even attempted to get the glass under the skin.

Has any B builder seen this? I am wondering if I was sent Onex tips....
