Subject: wood struts on 799B
Billy,
The struts are patterned exactly after Alan Wise' plane which flew with wood struts
for years.
They are a sandwich of Spruce sides with a 1/4" ply center and some hefty ends.
The tires are regular dirt bike tires on some 21" rims with the lugs sanded off.
The newsletter has an article I wrote on tire shaving which tells how I did
it. Very messy, but worth it I think.
