Thanks in advance.

I used the Poly-Fiber system (formerly Stits). It calls for 1 inch overlap minumum. I think I covered the longeron joints with 3 inch tapes. The manual for your system should say what is required, since all these systems are intended for commercial aircraft and have to have an STC.

Q2: What is your new wing span? Q3: Did you purchase from John Chmura? Looks good and eager to see close up at Baraboo (although I will be coming to SPI this coming Mon-Wed to visit family - may give you a call).
