Default RE: Fleet Brotherhood



Thanks for the offer Bob.  I have several sources for alumnium and steel plate but just don't cherrish the idea of grinding off a few thousenths with a hand file.  

The wood ply may still make the cut as I've some treatments in mind and I remember that I flew my 1/4 scaler with the stock spars with no problem for 5 years.   The screw holes rounded out a bit but some CA tightened them up.   This time I'm looking at  a good soak with thinned epoxy and some embedded nut plates.  We'll see.

Those pix are great.  Very red on one of them.
