THIS IS JUST A QUICK NOTE ->Last month there was an AutoCad drawing of the wing rib put outon this usenet and I have found it to be not per the pietenpolprints which are given by Don Pietenpol. Some of the discrepanciesare: 1. Spacing between front and rear spar was not 27-3/4 inches. I found it to be about 28-1/4. 2. The last brace at the trailing edge was not from the upper side of the rear spar to the lower capstrip at the trailing edge. This is weaker support for the Aerodynamic forces if it is backwards from the print.I did not check any further. I guess the term Caveat de-Emptor has a familiar tune. --________________________________________________________________________________
