My legs from Jabiru sound like they are simular in the lay up. And when I crashed in the paddock they delaminated and my undercariage collapsed. I will wrap them this time, even though Jabiru don't do it.

He said to wrap the whole leg. The reason for wrapping is that the fibers in the Scotchply are unidirectional and they can split with the grain of the material if they are not wrapped. They would be most likely to start the split through one of the bolt holes that attach them to the top bracket.
