Thank you manks. One final question. How many ribs in from the wing root should the rails be? And would you suggest the B wing which is more sporty or the A wing for beginners. I think I am leaning towards the sportier version.

If it has any basis to the decision, I am also converting this PT40 to a taildragger.
I also converted one to a tail dragger, it is tougher to handle on the ground, flying makes no difference. I epoxied some light plywood to both sides of the fuse where the gear would mount, then I used some good nuts and bolts with locktight to secure them, it works fine, have not had a problem in over 25 flights. I did lose the tail wheel on on flight.
