Dusters,


Just bought N511U, Starduster. It's a project as we have to build new wings. The fuselage, LG, tail feather etc... are in good shape and only require some blasting a painting. New bungees too!! Question right now is after reading the archives I see that there is some suggestion to using the Acroduster wings on the Starduster, can anyone comment or confirm this idea, Capt 007?? Would there be any reason a set of Acro wings would not mate to an already built Starduster?? Secondarily, has anyone produced CAD files for the airfoils for the duster series?? I have a source for doing CNC ribs and we will be making a leading edge tool for plywood LE's. Thanks in advance for any help and we look forward to being part of the Duster crowd.
