A good view of the canard carbon fiber spar and the slot core being attached. The tube out the end is the brake line.

July 1984

View of the elevator being fitted in place. The larger tube is the Pitot line for the airspeed indicator.

The elevator hinges are fit in place along with the control tubes. In the background you can see the vertical fin is installed in the rear shell and the motor mount is fit to the engine prior to installation.

Outermost of the three elevator hinges. The foam block down the wing covers and protects the pitot tube.

Canard basically ready for installation. Note the fill/prep for paint work has been done up to a few inches prior to the fuselage joint. Ever try to sand the bottom of a wing on your back, I don't think so.
