Default RE: New plane out of foam

Neat lookin wing Macx! I can't tell from the pics what ya used to bolt the engine down?

After dreaming about this last night,,, (okay, okay, I dreamed about Shania Twain also) I decided that cutting the wing down to save weight might not be the thing to do. Losing sq. inches doesn't sound like the way to go.

I think tonight I'm gonna rough out all the parts, stack it all up on my scale and just see about where I'll end up.

I just did some figuring.
Even if I end up at 5 .lbs that should put me at 14.97 oz. per sq. ft. I can live with that
