RE: Need source for canopy for Curare
Kevin, Spent the morning sheeting the bottom of other half of the wing. I don't know if I do the correctly but I glew the sheet with thin CA on all ribs, spars and LE & TE. I then have to cut out for aleron servos, which I have mounted on 1/16 ply hatches using 1/2" screws to afix to wing, then sand sheeting to match. I sheeted with 3/32 and then sand it down to about 1/16. I thin cut out for retracts. This all takes me about 3 hours plus per side. I have now epoxied the two half together before sheeting the top. The center ribs of each half are fully epoxied together under pressure. I am questing if I should also fiber glass tape the centers or if they will stay together without a strip of fiber glass. Opinions are welcomed. The plans call for 3/8 dihedral, which is almost straight. I ordered two other sets of plans which have all now arrived. They are in English but do not seem as complete as the origionals from Eureka which were in German. There really isn't a lot of explanation and only the three views, leaving much to imagination. Over the years I have built a lot of kits which have instruction booklets but this is my first build without instructions. As to covering I am giving consideration to fiberglass and paint. It will be heavier then monocoat so may depend on completed weight as to which finaish.
Would like to see pictures of yours and keep posting your progress
