WARNING: GP 1/3 Pitts
I would also like to know the outcome--however--(no disrespect to AnnMarie or GP) the small wood blocks may be ok and fly great and last for a long time. I am certainly no structural engineer, however, I would not attempt to fly this beautiful plane until I am certain the cabanes and top wing are attached to something very solid in the fuse. After seeing the size of the blocks, and the size of the plane---(this is no 40 size trainer)---I do this because of my own peace of mind-just a personal thing, I suppose.
