Problem is that when you look at the area available between the ribs, you
have less than 6 gallons available. I decided it was not worth it and will use
a fuselage tank behind the seats.
Callbie's metal wing would be the way to go for tank capacity.

I'll have to make the Baraboo thing this year.

The Yahoo Tailwind Forum has more activity. Are you a member on that list?

If you really want to see Tailwinds go to Baraboo WI (KDLL) the weekend
before Oshkosh.

Wow, the list comes alive.
So many of these matronics lists are virtually dead.
I am a tailwind fan. Always have been, always will be. Could never get
started. In the mean time I built a Pitts and an RV6. The tailwind still
lingers though. I have a nice RV6, but I think the TW is a more practical
plane when one considers every thing, such as cost to build and simplicity.
Couple that with a very respectable cruise speed per HP and the TW is a
close shoice.
Vans plans are not real clear in a lot of areas. The second time around they
would be, but the first time they are somewhat un-clear.
As for the metal wings. I would sure look into them if I were a builder and
I had not yet stsrted a set of wings.
Keep this list going... Let's trade rides... I may get the torch fired up.

That is correct Bill. But Van's plans are drawn nicely except he scatters
details all over the place from page one to page 55.
At least the early slow build drawings were like that. I hope in the later
years he has got things organized better. The drawings were done nice but,
he has things scattered real bad and trying to find details are a problem
sometimes.

Phil, I read a quote many years ago from a Tailwind builder who said, "The
plans give you a wonderful opportunity to use your imagination."
I doubt I would have gotten mine done without the help from folks on the
internet.
