Hi Alan,
I like this glider, should look great in the air.
Keith you should be on the comedy store LoL !
With all this building activity going on, it's going to a great year next flying season, can't wait.
Alan_Perse:
Ok progress update.
I have all the ribs for the wings cut out, mostly. Still have the spar slots to cut out on some of them. I decided to redesign the wing using a different aerofoil, the HQ 3.5. The center panel of the three piece wing is straight so I created those ribs using the sandwich method. The pictures bellow show how I achieved this for anyone who does not know what the sandwich method is.
The Sandwich Templets
The Balsa blanks that go between the templets
The whole lot all bolted together
After much cutting and sanding
The finished ribs all 20 of them.
