do not archive
Already deleted the email.....don't recall who.
But, whoever is considering adding the extra between the wing root and the strut attachment points;
are you using one-piece factory-made struts?

Zed

Zed,
Actually I plan on making up my own spars.
To the 3110m regular spar, I will be adding an additional 550 for a total of 3660, which is exactly the length of my 12' sheet. I also purchased some longer spar caps, 3/4 x 3/4 x .125 and will have them go all the way into the spar tip.

Zed,
Like yourself, I responded, and deleted your previous message a little too quick, and misread question. I assumed you were making a reference to the spars, and not the struts. As far as the struts go, I will be making my own, and covering them with an airfoil in aluminum.
During a trip to PA last Fall, I dropped in to see Dillsburg Aero Parts, and purchased full lengths of chrome molly tubing in every size from 1/4" to 2", so I should not have any problem in fabbing up my own struts, along with the jury struts.
