Hey Dave,You contradicted yourself by saying "follow the plans..." in that you're givingstructural advice there, which calls for 1020 steel like you mentioned, and yousaw how well that went over! :)Don't sweat it, they get a little jumpy around here when you "don't follow theplans", well, except how THEY didn't... We're all selectively compliant.Not many steel fuselages out there and it seems you built your own, lots of guyshere would love to know more about that, and they won't assume you're usingLowe's hardware for the motor mounts...ToolsPS Thanks for your service. Did you fly control line planes with Armstrong?Read this topic online here:http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.p ... ___Subject: Pietenpol-List: About an old and dear friend
