Is it CA glue? If so, I'd say it's your call. Some people will say "never use CA beyone it's experation date. Personally, if it flows, I'll use it. And I've never had a problem with glue joints coming apart.

Default "dated" glue

Let me ask just one question........
Would you risk YOUR $$$$$ plane for 5 or 6 bucks???

I'd pitch it and start over...My .02.

Glue hasn't expired acording to the date he mentioned. I test it on some scrap pieces and then make the appropriate decision.

Default Three things I want you to do...

1. Hit you caps lock key.

2. Take the cap off that glue bottle.

3. Get busy and finish that plane before another year goes by.
