Hi gang... I've started on my three piece wing center section spars and fittings and see the pounds adding up quickly. So I have some questions for the one piece wing advocates.It's not too late to turn back if the weight savings are worth it. 1. What is most commonly used for spars ie. 1" routed,3/4" solid or laminated? 2. What type of scarf joint ? across the wide surface of the spar ( BHP style) or across the width of the spar. 3. What is the approx. weight of a completed wing. Thanks in advance Ed G.________________________________________________________________________________Date: Thu, 8 Nov 2001 08:33:18 -0800 (PST)
