......... Unfortunately my Phoenix Extra 330 bit the dust ...........


The good news is I've bought another one, and will be diving back in real soon.

...........

This bird, isn't built quite as ''cheaply'' as I thought.

See you ''up there'' soon!

Danny, I hate to hear you lost your extra. I hope all goes better for your next one. Since you have a busted up wing on hand I wonder if I could ask a favor. Can you get a close up picture of the shear web material? I am curious whether or not it is just balsa (with grain in the wrong direction) or some of that funky soft plywood they use in this plane. Also, can you tell how far out the shearwebs go?
