I know a composite repair specialist in Atlanta named Greg Kress that does this for a living for Delta. He flew out on a spar repair for a composite aircraft close by us. He made the pre-made auto-claved tapered part made from the same modulus and ratio (carbon to epoxy) as the part he was fixing and installed it and left a book full of FAA paperwork certifying that the spar was once again airworthy with all of the computer calculations, etc, etc . He is one of 3 people at that time certified by the FAA to do this kind of repair on airliners and has a masters degree in it! I think he charges ~$1800 for everything. I can look him up for you if you are interested. Scott
