F-18 Aft Fairing
Assorted blocks of closed cell styrofoam are bonded together to build up the raw fairing structure. | |
Chip Bassett's friend, world class glider pilot and yachtsman, Roy takes time from his busy schedule to teach us his fabrication methods. A fine eye for creating aerodynamic shapes. | |
Near final shape. The fairing structure will be made from several layers of epoxy-fiberglass placed directly on the foam shape. |
