Working on the P-39

This morning I put carbon fiber down on the wax paper and worked epoxy into it.  Then I put the leading edges for the stabilizer and vertical fin on top of it and weighted them down to cure.  Our friend Horty came by to visit and pick up a piece of carbon fiber for his plane, it was missing from the kit.  We had a nice time and I loaded him up with a couple of projects.
By evening it had cured enough that I was able to finish framing up the stabilizer.  If you look close you can see where I added carbon fiber inside the tips also.
