Subject: | Cracks Around Rudder Stiffeners... |
After washing the 'ol RV-8 last night, I noticed that there is about a .5" crack
in the .02" skin of the rudder in the *front* of two of the angle stiffeners
(towards the leading edge of the rudder). The skin is a little "bulgy" right
there, and its possible that I gave that area a good push with my thumb at some
point to see if I could get it to flatten out.
Obviously I need to keep an eye on this, but is it anything to worry about, really?
I'm just about ready to take the plane in for paint, so if I have to do
something about it, I'd rather do it *before* the paint.
Thanks in advance for the feedback,

Any listers planning on attending the WCFC this weekend in Madera California?
I'm planning on being there with the 'ol RV-8. Come up and say 'hi' and introduce
yourself; I'd love to meet some of the Listers in person!
