> Sanding a surface makes it a poor glue joint? Yes, according to the FAA. and EAA sites. Sanding should be finished with a 120 grit paper if you must. BUT.
The Rand Robinson assembly manual states on page 11. Under "Fuselage Sides" fifth paragraph down. "...A sanding disc mounted on a table saw or radial arm saw will come in handy at this time for shaping the gusset blocks." Also most of the joints are also backed up with plywood skin which also acts like a gusset. Its your choice to build as you see fit. Just keep your glue joints from starving.
