I'm going to Reno and have to demonstrate a 5g pullup. I'm putting an engine with twice the power the plans call for in the thing and it's going to be way, way faster than originally intended. But then I'm also putting less seats in it than designed, so I'd most likely be fine without the extra strength. But fir is substantially cheaper and easier to find than spruce, too :) -- Steve N205FT mystic...@swbell.net He who seeks will find, and he who knocks will be let in.
