RE: SIMLA BUILD THREAD
I have now thought of ways to keep the wing from collapsing. Of course, this resembles closing the barn door after the cows have escaped.
I do have the jig you described. Unfortunately, I had already installed the alignment pins and the nut for the wing bolt, so the rods no longer go through.
The only good(?) news is that the sheeting is on one side only.
How would you steam the wing? Wet it down and then use an iron?
Jeff doesn't have any wing kits. He didn't have any spare parts cut for the latest production of the kit. I *do* have a kit from the second production, but I'd hate to have to use the wing components from it, since I wanted to build the new kit with the shorter wing.
