Hello all, I'd like to thank you for your stories of first flights, pictures, and success stories. They are inspirational! I hope to submit one of those first flight stories in the near future too. However, I'm still struggling with some of those construction issues that the plans and instruction manual leave to the imagination. I seem stuck right now. I have been working on the flaps way too long! I currently have the plane upside down to finish the bottom of the wings. That done I decided to cut out and finish the flaps. I'm struggling with installing the flap spars, mounting all the hardware, and having it all line up properly. I'll be cutting my second set of flap spars today, and hopefully "seeing the light" of how to finish the darn things. It's difficult to stay motivated when you end up doing things twice, or when a task is completed, you realize "if I would have done this, it would have been a lot easier". I do try to go to people's web sites and review the mail, and pore over as much as I can online, but have not found the detail necessary to answer all my construction snags. For all of you that have successfully completed your project, congratulations! Keep the stories of flights and pictures coming. Just know that it helps keep the juices flowing of those of us that have a useless lump of lumber, foam, and fiberglass sitting in their garage, waiting to be called an aircraft one day. 90% done, 90%to go!
