I think the Chevrolet Astro Van carbon/glass springs that Bob Polgreen has talked about would work perfectly for tail springs. Look in the archives for use as main landing gear struts and posts by Bob. My recollection is that they are readily available at your local wrecked car graveyard for cheap prices. One could make several tail springs with a set of these springs. Just a thought. Larry H.

Other than that, no reason, except that my friend let me bum all the cloth that I needed for it.
