Bones,
do your remember if you glued the t-tail on or was it held on with bolts? Did you put a spar in the wing or rely just on a fiber glass center section? I'm not looking for a fast super fast plane, just a nice looking sport plane that goes fairly fast. Where do you live in Texas?
Thanks in advance !

QUOTE=Bones1;12039095]I had 2 of them. The first was covered in regular monocots and I had a we ra 120 on it. Flew great until the wing fell off. Steel bolts into blind nuts. Bad idea
The second I gave to a friend that ran a paint and body shop. It gained several pounds in glass and paint. Another bad idea. Same engine, open header from tuned pipe cut off just outside the cowl with perry pump. Flew heavy but beautiful in the air. Sold it. Keep it light[/QUOTE]
