    Ron, most polymers become brittle because of a loss of the volitile hydrocarbons they contain, the higher the temp generally the faster the loss of these hydrocarbons. Depending on the material you MAY actually make a polymer based component harder by boiling it and then cooling it. UV light can and does play a part here too, I suppose you could put some SPF50 on your outriggers to block those UV's, but seriously some of the new clear films block 99% of UV which would fix the issue if it is UV related craig

    Hi, I'm looking for some Grade BB 3mm birch plywood to replace some of the parts that I never had in my kit. The factory can't get any and I'm struggling to find any anywhere else. Anybody have any UK contacts for this or does anyone in the UK have any sizeable bits left over that they would like to get rid of. Willing to pay of course. Regards, Phil Visit - www.EuropaOwners.org

Not sure what the difference between BB and GLI/GLII is, though. regards Rowland -- | Rowland Carson LAA #16532 http://home.clara.net/rowil/aviation/ | 1290 hours building Europa #435 G-ROWI e-mail <rowil@clara.net>
