As OC speculated, it is exactly on the seam between the upper 1/2 and bottom 1/2 of the fuselage assembly. You can feel the two halves separating right along the seam. It looks like I will have to reinforce the area but glassing over the seam "lip" is going to be interesting. I am thinking of 5 plies of 9oz fiberglass using West Marine epoxy resin along the inside of the fuselage with about 3" of overlap. Does this sound about right or am I missing something?

If it has, you might want to inject Hysol back into the the joint. Are you going to add some fiberglass overlay to the outside also? I believe that the crack will reappear if you don't.

Covering all the available space at the joggle. This should help dampen the vibration some. Also as Tim has stated, try to inject some adhesive into the outer separation. ----- Original Message ----- From: Galin Hernandez To: kis-list@matronics.com Sent: Saturday, July 30, 2016 7:35 PM Subject: Re: KIS-List: September Trip All; I went to the hangar today, wedged my big "rear" into the inside of the cockpit and got a good look at where the separation is but from the inside.
