Good morning,



May this note find everyone well. The project is going great.
Have a question on the sequencing of building the wings on this Skybolt. Wings
first or Ailerons first? Seems to make sense to construct the wings first then
fit the Ailerons to the wing. I was just thinking of warming up on a smaller
project like the Ailerons first to get the feel of building with the wood. Has
any one have any experience with the Steen Laminated Spars? Is it that
difficult to work with the stock from Aircraft Spruce? Be great to have
feedback on any problems you have had and help hints from this talented group
Thank you Tim
