Build a 96-Inch Lanzo Bomber

by Tandy Walker, Arlington, Texas

Here are a couple of shots showing how I integrate the curved stab tip spline with the straight 1/4" square diamond leading edge.  The spline is cut off on the bias and the 1/4" square diamond leading edge is notched out along its diagonal as shown below.  Notice the 1/8" block use to elevate the LE of the spline to align it with the leading edge center line.
 

 

 

This picture shows the 1/4" square diamond LE fitted to the spline, but not yet glued in place......Tandy

 
The picture below shows the progress I made yesterday afternoon on laying up the big Bomber's stab.  The center section is still open as I have build in the stab attach points............................Tandy
