Default RE: Newly redesigned WH Extra build thread

Tom,

THanks for the quick response, I appreciate it.

My first gasser is the WH YAK and I learned a lot assemblying the YAK.


Since this is my second gasser, I'm really going to take a long time to assemble and and while doing so, I'm looking to reduce weight as much as possbile. I would prefer to buy carbon landing gear due to the weight savings. It sounds like the nylon gear is about the same weight as the metal gear. I was hoping to save 4 or more ounces on the gear. Next is the wing tubes and whatever else I can can do to reduce weight.

If you have any other recommendations for weight reduction, please let me know.

Regards

Chuck
