Ken,The center section between the cabanes doesn't get much bending load so, ifthere are any significant modulus differences, it shouldn't matter.Mike Hardaway _____

I wouldn't worry about it. Basicaly all those things do ishold everything else in place and provide attachment pointsfor cabanes, wing panels, etc. Look at the Moth series ofAC. The crossbar between the cabanes is a small diametertube, What you see as airfoil is actually only the fuel tank.Clif Well I would use the DF in the front, don't think the modulus of elasticity would matter since lots of airfoils have spars of different widths. Thats what i would do however I no expert.

If you are building a one piece wing buying and shipping 30 ft spars would be prohibitive if you could even find them.Mike McGowan building rib jig ----- Original Message -----

Yes they do but we are dealing with one of spruce, theother of fir. The question being is it going to make adifference which one goes where. Since the weaker one,made of spruce, is the "gold standard" as it were, thenthe point is moot. The fir being stronger is overkill.We are, of course, assuming that both have the samedimensions.Clif Hi, the spars in the centre section see fairly high compression loads, Regards Mike T.________________________________________________________________________________
