Good morning gents... In another flash of inspiration (or is that desperation?) to get my KR's weight down, I was wondering if there is any structural ramifications in removing the wing core foam after glassing.
My understanding is the foam is completely non-structural, and by removing it, I could possibly save up to 20Lbs. Proposed method is to glue the foam in place, per plans, but apply duct tape over the foam between the spars and around the leading edge, glass the wing, then pop the foam loose, leaving the nicely shaped fibreglass behind. Comments anyone? Cheers, Rob. Robin Wills Second Person, Pacific National KR-2 19-4594, Ser# N111 krvia...@bigpond.com
