Default RE: Dave Snow Wings/Stabs

I built the Dynamic (Krill) AJ version wings and stabs. Put them on my Lightning. To reiterate what others have said, the workmanship, design, etc,, is top drawer. I was not hip to the correct method of using Gorilla glue and used far too much.

The wings that Darin Peirce has been building for himself and Andrew are all in the 8 oz to 8.5 range. Darin puts his sheeting down on the jig and lays the built rib/spar structure over it. He traces around EVERY dang rib and spar with a fine tip Sharpie and then moves the sheeting off, Then puts the tiniest of beads down where he marked . I would swear its not enough glue but,, when it dries each of the ribs has a beautiful meniscus of foamed Gorilla glue along all joints. Beautiful work on his wings. He is doing a half dozen sets of Evo wings and the Dynamic stabs. Great combination.
