Subject: | Capstrip vs Spar material |
I was told some time ago by ACS that capstrip is not required to meet the higher
standards of spar material. Some of the capstrip I received from them did not
meet the 6 annual rings per inch standard. I am about to place a wood order
with them and wish to include the wood required to make the aileron spars.
I believe I can get by with 1/2" by 2 1/2 stock. These dimension fall under
their capstrip pricing. If you go to 1/2 by 2 3/4 material you have to buy spar
stock.
The fact that the aileron spars are called spars, should I order spar material
for them?

No concern about what they call it.....it's aircraft grade spruce. Just
order what you need dimensionally, regardless of how they categorize it....

I called again today and the gal says the spar material is of higher grade but
she transferred me to the wood department and the gentleman there says its all
cut from the same aircraft grade spruce. Good enough for now and I will order
the capstrip. I will check it though when I get it :)

There is not nearly as much stress on the ailerons as there is on the wing
spars. I see no need to use spar stock for the ailerons. I didn't. Hope
my ailerons pass inspection. C

you were flying. NICE SHOT!

Emailed response from ACS about spar and capstrip material.
John,
Both capstrip and spares are milled from grade A aircraft quality Sitka spruce.
I hope this helps.
Regards,
Josh Solis

Charles, your airplane will pass inspection. Since it is a homebuilt, you c
an make it from anything you want. The inspector only really cares about th
e paperwork.
