Phil, in your mesage you said you had to "replace both of your main spars". I'm wondering if you replaced them because they were damaged from removing the wingskins or did you remove your skins because your spars were bad? I have not had a chance to start the disasembly process yet, hopefully tomorow. Also you mentioned that vinylester wont cure in the presenceof epoxy, are you refering to cured or uncured epoxy. Thankyou for your help.
