KR> Lengthen Horizontal Stabilizer?
Mark, I could not tell for sure what Troy did from his pictures so good to get the scoop. Now that I look again, I see the word "extended" on the caption so must have been my learning disability rearing its head again! ;-) So, to be really clear. It is "acceptable" to extend the per-plans horizontal stabilizer six inches on each side by glassing on a "long tip". No need to extend the spars.

KR> Lengthen Horizontal Stabilizer?
Hi all, I have a stock width horizontal stabilizer and would like to lengthen it. My research shows those that have done this have built a new stabilizer. Is it possible to just extend the existing stabilizer? I am not a structural engineer (so be gentle please) but can imagine the problems that this would create (since the spar would not extend to the tip). If it is possible/acceptable, any tips/links would sure be appreciated. Thanks, Jon Finley N314JF - Q2 - Subaru EJ-22 [http://www.finleyweb.net/Q2Subaru.aspx] http://www.finleyweb.net/Q2Subaru.aspx
