Ken ...... I have not build my wings yet (all
materials ordered from ACS but await shipment). I
plan to extend my forward spar in similar fashion to
the wooden spar with the 1.0 x 1.5 x 1/8 spar cap and
web. This should provide a good infrastructure to
support the tapered wingtips. I believe this the
fashion Calbie Woods build the tapered wingtips for
the 4Runner. Rich

Rich...the fourunner tip was made of aluminum with a spar inside to line up
with, but not attached to the main spar. It was held on by close spaced
screws into the outboard rib. As far as I know, this has proven satisfactory
thru the years...Callbie Wood The Piper Apache tip (larger) is held on by
screws only.
This tapered tip was a mod made much later to see if HI altitude cruise was
improved....NOT NOTICEBLY.
