Hi John and guys, The 3 planes we have sold have been SLSA's. I give
kit builders a lot of credit for taking on a project like this. I built
a Kolb MK3 from 92 to 95 (a bit over 1200 hrs-----somewhat modified).
Still flying it. While in the building process the help I got from other
builders on the "KOLB LIST" was priceless. As the Allegro is still
fairly new to the USA, there are probably a lot of people putting
together kits around the world. I would think that using the internet
technology and getting a list of builders from the manufacturer,
possibly one could get together more builders in a forum such as we have
here .(Allegro List). Try not to get too frustrated. The whole building
process is more like 2 or 3 steps ahead and 1 back. Keep in mind your
goal and remember that the 1st time your bird takes flight, with you at
the controls, will be etched into your memory for ever.
fly safe
Bob Griffin

John:
Glad you found the letters. You are incorrect concerning the slotted
(Forked) end. The forked end (wing end) of the strut tubes is slightly
rounded on the "top" side. This is the side that is closest to the wing
itself. The "bottom" side is the side you refer to as "longer". Be careful
before you drill any holes and rivet the strut covers on the tubes to orient
the crimped edge of the cover such that when each strut is placed on the
plane the crimped edge is on the underside of the covers. And make sure the
cover is pointed in the correct direction for each strut tube. Just take
your time, lay out the strut tubes and the covers as they will go on the
plane before you start drilling and you should be fine.
