Default ARF's versus KIT's the saga continues

Originally posted by FilipM

And it is in no way the fault of an ARF if some guy isn't careful enough to glue the wing at all
But who's fault is it if the wing fails because the spar wasn't glued in, or the pod (seaplane) wasn't glued in, or the sher web was insufficient or... any one of the myraid other failures occurring?

Sure a poor builder can mess up. But, generally, when someone has that much effort invested, they pay attention to little details like did I glue that spar and, it matters to them if something seems loose as they're covering, they don't think "not my job" or "what the h*ll, it's almost quitting time" or "if I don't cover it, it'll be one less unit and the boss already warned me about being slow this week".... :stupid:
