I know the skybolt calls for 3/16 in ply which is no longer available.
I see alot of guys have laminated 1/8 and 1/16 to get the correct thickness....


Looking at the firebolt plans it only shows an 1/8 ply wing walk. I also think the orginal model 12 had 1/8 wing walk...


Is that enough??? Would be nice to save wieght with thinner ply. Just dont want to step through it either.


Thanks
Bill
