You have restored my faith, I thought you would rarely make a
mistake. I feel much better about my own screwups and having to redo parts
now that I see that near perfect workmanship comes at a price.

Hi Lee,
For the HDS it was prudent to have more 8 foot sheets as I learned the
hard way. You should inventory your long pieces and figure how many of
each you need and add 20% for damage and errors in your shop. I'd buy
enough .016 for ailerons, elevators, etc. Replace any other .016 skin
with .020
where you can. I made 5 ailerons to get two correct and then
accidentally stepped on the good one and bought more sheet. Several rear
top skins
two rudder nose skins, two stabilizer nose skins, and many other parts
too numerous to mention to get it exactly right. You get the idea. With
the XL
you might just be ahead with 12 footers.
