I just laminated the top longerons today-two pieces to make long enough-they were short so that I could carry them in my car! The scarf turned out swell, and I'm not going to worry about where it is in the fuse. I am building up the two bottom longerons of fir strips, .33in x 1in. Someone has given my a fully converted Corvair, 110hp model, so I am pleased that I got the plans fro the mount from Don.We just picked up an old Piet(1935?) today, and it has a fully converted A which looks like it hasn't been run. It has not been decided what to do with this yet. If it becomes available, I'll let the list know.________________________________________________________________________________
