RE: Great Planes Tiporare – Thirteen Year Build
Chris,
that's interesting. What was the name of the fellow you bought yours from?
I recall his old thread and it was built from an original GP kit. He must have decided to swap the 1/16" plate in order to use the new one without any additional support. Did he use 1/8" or 3/16"?
How he managed to glass it once in place is beyond me but maybe he glassed it before installing it. I can't really see the point in glassing thick ply unless he wanted to mate it to the fuse sides... but still, I'm sure its strong.
Would you be able to take a couple of snaps of the area?
David.
