Default RE: FEJ planes: list of points to watch closely

Well,

It seems that someone is listening at FEJ and whatever Oly has been advising them of, they have fixed (partially at least). I have checked my AT3 and was pleasantly surprised that all the issues mentioned earlier have been dealt with. Even the servo boxes are now made of plywood, not balsa. I wstill don't trust Chinese plywood and will strengthen these with glass cloth.

I will still need to strengthen the main gear mount with some aircraft grade plywood and spread some carbon all around it and also strengthen the main Fuselage former with ply and Carbon. For peace of mind I will also replace all the air rams with UP's and Robarts.
