hello, I need help, I had an unfortunate accident with my ARF P-47 the other day, apparently I forgot that when an aircraft loses forward momentum and lack of airspeed will eventually make an aircraft lose to gravity, I was wondering if there was anyone that would have the rib profiles for the P-47 Top Flite 60 size kit so I can rebuild the wing that decided to literally explode into a thousand pieces when it contacted the ground littering the runway of our flying field.
Any help would be much appreciated and I will even let you laugh at my misfortune.

Gold Edition.  Main difference is the kit is a Razorback.

Do you have the gold edition or the earlier design?

The wing is different, so that is the reason i ask.

Status: offline 		how rude of me, I would like to thank you for the rib profiles guys, one wing is still intact but will require a rebuild so I will have to pull of the covering and the 1/16' panelling covering the wings as every rib is split and both main spars have cracked,  so I can double check the rib shape with the ones all you have sent me, thanks again guys, you are all awesome!!!!

Status: offline 		You probably already know this but just in case ... the airfoil design is not the same from the center to the tip. There are two different airfoils in this wing. So don't be surprised if you notice a change there. also of course this wing has washout built into it which is set by the tabs.

Status: offline 		thanks heaps guys, a bit of washout on the wings would probably help with stability and prevent tip stall, thanks again.
