<p>A method of forming a composite laminate and an aircraft landing gear strut fairing/debris protector are provided. The composite laminate comprises first and second fibre reinforced plastics skin elements (21, 23) with a foamed core (27) between them. The method includes the steps of providing a tool having a tool surface (15, 20) to form each said skin element, forming a lay-up (21, 23) on each said tool surface of fibrous reinforcing material and plastics matrix material and allowing the matrix material at least partly to harden, positioning the tools (8, 13) such that the two skins (21, 23) are supported in their final relationship to each other and introducing a foaming resin (27) between the skins to form a foam core. <IMAGE></p> |
