Default RE: Foam wing Lay Up

Dave:
I’ve seen this done several times. Actually I think it’s called a “Bagged Wing”. I witnessed Brian Burass do a quickee wing in less than an hour. The next day cut the control surfaces, put in the linkage in it and away you go. I don’t believe he had three hours in it. (He knows what he’s doing). While all this sounds good it does require a level of expertise in bagging I don’t have to get it to come out right. Another problem is white foam is not strong enough so he used pink which resulted in a slightly heavier wing. He also built a couple of Q40 wings this way. They all worked fine.
