Default RE: 2008 the year of the Turbinator

Opinions wanted:

An older gentleman in our club, who is an accomplished builder, gave me a Turbinator he'd built from a laser-cut short kit. It's been covered. It looks good. The only turbine I have available now is a P-120, which I'd turn down to about 18 lb. Looking at the fuselage insides, I noticed that he has apparently used CA exclusively, landing gear mounts included. I have to assume that he's done the same with the wing. Question: Will this structure be strong enough? I'm a titebond/epoxy builder. Just wondering before I start the equipment installation.

TIA

Jack
