    Rick I used the 2.7 for all surfaces when I rebuilt my Kolb MkIII back in the mid 90's. Used 1.7 or 1.8 (which is it?) for all surfaces on my Firefly..Same for my N3 Pup...and Ultra star...Herb At 07:27 PM 6/21/2010, you wrote: >Herb, John, I was more concerned about the quality of the weave and >if it shrinks uniformly.

    John, Good point, I was thinking of making them as light as possible so I could decrease the balance weight. Plan B, use tubing instead of steel rod and pack one end with lead. I understand the flaps and ailerons on the B-36 were framed with magnesium. I suppose that's a little extreme, though. :-} Rick On Mon, Jun 21, 2010 at 8:07 PM, John Hauck <jhauck@elmore.rr.com> wrote: > > > Herb, did you use the lighter weight for ailerons and flaps? > > > Rick Girard > =================================================== > > > Realize you asked Herb. > > Flaps are vulnerable to FOD and prop drumming, plus scrw drivers and other > tools and stuff. > > I use heavy fabric on flaps and ailerons. > > I have 18 year old/3,000+ dacron on my flaps that are still serviceable. > > john h > mkIII > >
