FYI boeing aircraft co. instructes fiberglass repairs to be layed up alternating warp by 45 deg. with each layer, to increase the strength of the repaires resistance to delam and riping along the flex line of the part I have been a TWA and AA mechanic for 15 years ----- Original Message ----- From: Ron Freiberger To: KR Builders and Flyers Sent: Thursday, October 30, 2003 8:23 AM Subject: KR>Fiberglass
While we're on the subject (again), I'll ask one. If the original design was OK in dynel, which is pretty springy, is it really necessary to run glass at 45 degrees? Or do we just do it out of habit?
