Perhaps someone could request that Matt Dralle create an "off-the-wall idea" list. It would help the 99% of us that don't want to redesign everything just for the sake of doing it continue to enjoy this forum. My $0.02.

Gene,I built my Piet to Jim Will's PFA approved plans. They include the shapedspruce leading edge (nose piece) covered from the top of the front spar,around the leading edge nose spruce and all the way to the bottom of thefront spar. This forms a structural D section forward of the front spar. Allthe nose ribs and top and bottom spar contact points are glued.CheersPeterWonthaggihttp://www.cpc-world.com (check out "AirframeConstruction" -> "Wings" -> "Outer Sections" _____
