- Primed lower gap fairings and countersunk holes on fuselage
- Riveted gap fairings
- Drilled empennage fairing to vertical and horizontal stabilizer
- Outlined fairing on fuselage then wrapped in wax paper
- To fill the gaps in the empennage fairing I put down layers of fiberglass cloth followed by a flox mixture. I also laid down extra fiberglass cloth to wrap the fairing under the leading edge.
- After that I prepped the fairing with 36 sand paper, dust off and acetone wipe. Then I pressed the fairing in place and clecoed
- I also added more fiberglass cloth on top of the fairing around the wrap around area
