the micro-slurry and epoxy and join the elevator slot foam cores to
the canard.
.....
Once the attachment has cured, then the fun can begin. Trim the
elevator slot foam cores back to the "Eventual Trim Line". Next, sand
down the "tails" so that you can achieve a minimum of 0.4" of glass-
to-glass bond with the inside lamination, while at the same time
fairing everything nicely into the canard contour forward of the
shear web. At the glass-to-glass bond area, you must sand away all
micro and epoxy and get down to the glass. Spend some time looking at
the surfaces getting the best alignment that you can. When everything
is ready, laminate 2 BID at 45 degrees to the canard shear web on the
elevator slot foam cores, being sure to achieve at least 0.4" of
glass-to glass bond, and lapping up onto the canard at 1 east 1".
Note that the sketch ca 11 s out dry-micro fill if required at the
top and bottom of the shear web joint. Trim the inboard and outboard
elevator slot foam cores at the marks previously made on the canard.
.....
Your canard should now be looking more like a canard, and less
like a lump of foam and glass.
