Vince looks like the Extrusion Multiplier setting in your Slicer app is too high;
try setting it between 8.5 and 9.5... the extrusion beads should be overlapping
by about 5%-10%... Extruder temperature looks like it is also a tad too high....
Infill on the forward piece you can set fairly low at 15%, its not load
or stress bearing part, will print a lot faster.
The LAA Aft piece is a thin Shell model; it has no interior thickness (i.e its
not "watertight"), so printed as the stl is it could probably be crushed by hand
and is not optimised for 3D printing only CNC machining. Not surprised at all
to hear its breaking in the field.

Thanks for the tips :)
This 3D printing lark is all new to me so still learning/playing. I decided to
build a Voron and use ABS so very much have gone into the deep end head first
;)
These ones Ive printed will go out to Mike Harris who I hope will provide some
feedback.

No problem... i was once where you are now... watch some youtube videos on slicing
and print tuning; keep a journal of settings changes and results... you'll
get there... PETG is probably going to get better results once you get the hang
of it all, and PLA can be rock solid and robust also.... don't buy budget filament,
it will drive you insane with frustration.
