Just today I got the wings all rigged to the fuselage and have had the tail feathers all rigged a few months ago. Now I'm running the cables for the aileron controls.

I wish I had gone with the Model A, but the A-65 was at hand and very cheap. I have followed the plans very closely, except for a few extra braces in places! I have not been too concerned about weight, since it is so close the the AirCamper but only carries one person. It should perform quite well. >>> >>> I will attach a few pictures. >>> >>> Welcome aboard, >>> >>> Ray Krause, >>> Colusa, CA >>> Flying a Sonex Waiex, N51YX, Jabiru 3300...

Another idea, used in the past, is to solder many small tubes to a metal wing surface or press channels in two plates and sandwich them together. Like those original pre self defrost fridges. You know, the ones some idiot would stab while trying to " defrost" the thing. SSsssss.. ...." What's that noise!!?" In our case the top and bottom of the center section should be enough for a Ford.
