Subject: Glasair-List: Re: rudder

After I completed my Glasair2S rudder, fastened the hinge, all the fittings  
and counter balanced it, I decided to weigh it. I found my rudder weighed as  
much all the total weight of a just assembled RV4 empennage that included  the

fin, rudder, elevators, and trim tabs. Has anyone made the tail feathers of  
a Glasair out of aluminum like the Cirrus or out of carbon fiber. Just before 

Bob Herendeen was killed in a bi plane, he told me that Glasairs were way 
over  built and he was able to get a lot of weight out of his.
