Hi Mike,

I really don't think any parts would be of use. It's just the wing tube sleeves need to be firmly secured to the formers. Mine seem to have some gaps when viewed from the bottom. I think I can fill and patch with epoxy and CF cloth or the Kevlar cord as mentioned above and it will be fine. I would recommend a more secure system in future production.

The thing I need quickly would be a decal set for the fuse so I can repaint the cream color to grey. I'm really looking forward to flying the XL. Looks like it will be a great jet!

Thanks for keeping in touch and for your help,
Gary
