 |
|
I am am assembling the fuselage on a 601, and am at step 6 B 11 I believe. It looks like its time to install the wing spar center section. I have not ordered it yet. Can I go any further?
I am about to order the wing kit but don't really want to wait for it to show up in a few months.
Has anyone worked around this? If so how? Perhaps I could use a template for now to hold in place until the real deal shows up.

Yep, pretty much. I can't think of one single way to work around not having the center spar and because the center spar is matched to the wing spars they can't just pull one out inventory. You might get lucky though and they might have a spar set made up that you can talk them out of. I'd call.
This is one of the reasons when anyone asks here what order to build in I always say Tail, wings, fuselage.

Hey Michael,
Not to add to your disappointment, but if you are going to order your wing kit now, I suggest you get your order in as soon as you can. I ordered my wing kit on Dec 4th. I just got a notice from Shirley that my wing kit is tentatively scheduled to ship May 7th. The fuselage kit is what I will be needing next has a 14-16 week lead time. I hope I will be able to place my order as soon as I can. I have been waiting on this wing kit now for almost 4 months and I'm going stir-crazy (I feel for yah brother)!!
Regards,
Larry Hursh
