I sent the following to the 360 Tech Reps at Lancair for their comments.  I
would appreciate the collected wisdom of "all y'all" for added comments.  And
perhaps when all is said and done we can record the final result for posterity
so that others don't have to ask the same question...

When I talked to Mark Mahnke and Orin a couple of years ago at Oshkosh, this
is what I was able to remember about attaching the Mk2 tail to a Lancair 320
fuselage with the Mk1 flanges.  Oh, and by the way, the 320 tailcone is twisted
so that the flanges aren't level with each other (not just mine -- they're
all this way).

1)  Cut off the old flanges.

2)  Level the fuselage (left-right, fore-aft)

3)  Set up the stabilizer on the fuselage sidewalls and the mid bulkhead so
that the stabilizer pushes up against the (tilted aft) forward bulkhead and is
plumb and square and level and all those good things, but with a -1/2 degree
incidence (leading edge down).  Mark suggested building up a flox pad between
the stab and the fuselage sidewalls so that there's no air gap.  (And have
release tape on the stabilizer).

4)  Make a new flange with a 3-BID layup from the fuselage exterior onto the
bottom of the stabilizer.  Extend the 3-BID at least 1-1/2 inches onto the
fuse and the stabilizer.  Use flox to make a smooth fillet between the fuselage
sidewalls and the bottom of the stabilizer.

5)  Pop the stabilizer off and smooth down the inner edges of the flox pad.

6)  Put 3-BID on top of the newly-created flange but run it down to the
inside of the fuselage, over the flox pad and onto the inner fuselage sidewall.  
This traps the fuselage sidewall between a Y-shaped 6-BID flange.

(Note:  This is different from the manual, which suggests using the old
flange and making a dry micro pad.  I don't think I'd get a decent fit that way.)

7)  Epoxy/flox the stabilizer to the new 6-BID flange.

8)  Complete the joint by running 3-BIDs from the inner fuselage sidewalls
onto the bottom of the stabilizer.

9)  Do the 6-BID flange between the (tilted aft) forward bulkhead and the top
of the stabilizer.

Well, that's it.  Comments, anyone?  I have a gullible friend coming down for
a week in September to help me do this.  Sure would be nice to know what to
do....
