Just for you: http://www.vx-aviation.com/sprocket/empennage.htm My website is still being developed, but this is the start of the answer to your questions. Vern From: Daniel Weseman Sent: Friday, February 19, 2010 5:55 PM Subject: Rocket-List: Tails? Hi Guys first thanks for the nice welcome. Ive studied all the info i can find on Rocket tails. I have a few questions. First why are some tails considered faster? Just due to size ? next can anyone detail what makes the F-1 tails so much stronger? Ive heard of the extra skin stiffeners but are the skins thicker spars thicker or have doublers etc I have a nice -4 empenage with .020 control surface skins. I have another complete empenage kit so i could build a new vertical and horizontal if mods are available to drastically increase strength? Thanks for any detailed info about the differences in the structure of the tails used Dan Weseman danweseman@yahoo.com www.flycleanex.com www.fly5thbearing.com ------------------------------------------------------------------------- ------- Checked by AVG - www.avg.com 19:34:00 ________________________________ Message 2 _____________________________________ Time: 01:19:12 PM PST US From: tompowersrv4@sbcglobal.net Subject: Rocket-List: Yahoo!
