Gentlemen, (and Gentleladies if appropriate),As I study my drawings, (Improved Aircamper, 1933), preparatory to buildingthe fuselage, something is unclear to me. I hope that this question does notqualify me for residence at the Home of the Terminally Stupid, but here it is:Once the two sides of the fuselage are glued and gusseted, and ready to join,does one glue the cross members to the inside gussets, or should they be glueddirectly to the wood of the longeron? This would require a gusset of fairlycomplex shape. My hope is that the gussets applied to the cross membersprovide the needed strength in the joint. Izzatso? Thanx for your advice.Don Cooley________________________________________________________________________________
