The invention relates to a sandwich panel, comprising two skin layers and, connected thereto, a core layer in between. The first skin layer extends beyond the core at an edge of the panel by a protruding part, thereby defining an open edge space of the panel. The panel is further provided with a support member for the protruding part, the support member having a first part, extending inside the open edge space, and having a second part extending outside the open edge space and up to the plane, defined by the outer surface of the first skin layer. The panel provides an improved delamination resistance. The invention also relates to a support member for use in a sandwich panel according to the invention, and to a vehicle, in particular an aircraft, provided with the sandwich panel.
