Two points:1) Rodney, when building a laminated spar or longeron, the grain directions ofthe laminated strips should match. In the case of a spar, the resultant grainshould be horizontal, when the spar is standing upright. In other words, if youlook at the spar installed in the wing, the grain lines should look like avery tall deck of cards (grain lines about 3/4" long). In the case of longerons,since they are usually square, so the orientation isn't an issue. The graindirection of the individual layers should stack on top of each other. and2) Very nice to see a post from Graham Hansen. As always, full of well thoughtout, useful, practical advice, based on personal experience and logic.

Dang! I really like blue and yellow too! Although I've been forbidden to haveany thoughts of color scheme, in the back of my mind those two colors are oneof my favorite combinations. I saw a blue and yellow Culver Cadet on our fieldlast year that I really liked... dropped everything just to watch it taxi,fuel and take back off. Oh well, you weren't the first and I won't be the last if I choose that combo.Looks really beautiful! Please tell us what you are using.--------Mark ChouinardWings, Center Section and Empannage framed up - Working on FuselageRead this topic online here:http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.p ... ___Subject: Pietenpol-List: Re: Photo

Bill was there, you just didn't recognize him because he was in drag too. I onthe other hand was NOT there... just going on what I was told. Yep, that is a much better (and Mueller approved) photo.--------Mark ChouinardWings, Center Section and Empannage framed up - Working on FuselageRead this topic online here:http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.p ... ______Date: Mon, 3 Oct 2011 22:03:37 +0000 (UTC)
