Seam on Comp Arf Eurosport wingtip....
Not sure how I caught it, but the seam on the entire wing tip was separated... from leading edge to trailing edge of the wing... it appeared to be glued, and it is perfectly indexed to the two halves... I glued it back together with aeropoxy.... its not dry yet, so I can't torque on it to see if I did a good job
Now I'm kind of paranoid about the other one... it seems like its sealed well.... Anyone else experience this? Have a feeling it could have been ugly in flight if I didn't catch this.... Was regluing it with aeropxy enough?

Nothing to fear Mike, put many flights on mine with the tips split after a runway scrape. I just ran some thin CA in the seam when I got home.
