Don't ask how I came up with this build sequence... There seem to be two schools of thought on how to do wing fairings. One school says to leave a small gap between the fairings and the wing skin, enough to allow flexing of the wings. The manual suggests this approach. Another school says to overlap the wing skin a bit with the fairings (say 1/4 inch), leaving enough space around the wing skin to allow flexing of the wings. A guy helping me has done several IVs this way. Anyone have views on pros and cons of these approaches? Thanks, Dan
