Subject: Notes on a Fuji 32 rudder modification project
In reply to: Jake 's message, "Rudder?" on - Friday - 09/28/07 - 2:24pm

Hey Jake,

Thought you might be interested in the project notes from a guy named Brian Cleverly. Terry on the Fuji site was nice enough to pass on the connection, and Brian responded quickly and with lots of detail.

He "barn doored" the rudder on a Fuji 32 he's restoring, but went much further and refashioned the shape of the rudder to a "NACA 0012 foil profile". (I put that in quotes cause I have NO solid idea what it really means.)

His detailed descriptions are here:

www.anzam.com

Go to "refurbishing examples", then "current Fuji 32 rebuild".

The various projects on his site are organized by a dates tab, and the rudder work descriptions are on the following tabs:

-06/28/2005
-07/21/2005
-12/18/2006
-01/06/2006
-04/06/2006

This guy's doing a sh*t load of cool work. Check it out.

RR
