I need a bit of advise on how to go about repairing damage to the main spar on the top wing of a Pitts S1S, this damage was discovered when the covering was removed during a rebuild, It seems as if at some stage the bolt for the I strut was forced through the spar and this caused the splintering of the spar,any advise would be appreciated even if it is bad news
