<div>I am unfamiliar with that adhesive, what is the brand name and where would I get it. This sounds a lot simpler than what I was planning. Will that glue run into whatever empty spots there are in there? Will it not pool up into clumps and just glue the small area at the point of injestion? What do I clean it up with?</div> <div> </div> <div>I was thinking about a rib installed from the bottom. I thought I might cut a slot in the sheeting and through the foam about two inches in from the outboard tip of the phenolic. I could clean the slot up with my soldering iron and make it real straight and uniform. Then I was going to cut an airfoil shaped rib and glue it into the slot. A little light filler, some sanding and some monokote and it should be as good as new. </div> <div> </div> <div>What do you guys think about that idea? Do you think it will be strong and light enough? It is certainly more labor intensive and time consuming, but my
goal is peace of mind. I don't want to worry about my wing folding every time I pull a square manuever or perform a snap roll. </div> <div> </div> <div>Thanks again for your help!</div> <div>Anthony<BR><BR><B><I>Ed Alt <ed_alt@hotmail.com></I></B> wrote:</div> <BLOCKQUOTE class=replbq style="PADDING-LEFT: 5px; MARGIN-LEFT: 5px; BORDER-LEFT: #1010ff 2px solid"> <META content=Word.Document name=ProgId> <META content="MSHTML 6.00.2900.2963" name=GENERATOR> <META content="Microsoft Word 10" name=Originator><LINK href="cid:filelist.xml@01C6BD12.23C40DF0" rel=File-List> <STYLE>@font-face { font-family: Tahoma; } @page Section1 {size: 8.5in 11.0in; margin: .2in .25in 33.1pt .25in; mso-header-margin: .5in; mso-footer-margin: .5in; mso-paper-source: 0; } P.MsoNormal { FONT-SIZE: 12pt; MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt; FONT-FAMILY: "Times New Roman"; mso-style-parent: ""; mso-pagination: widow-orphan; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New

It's going to expand to fill the void and it's going to be alot lighter than epoxy. I've done this repair successfully on 35% gas stuff and it really holds up well. The only downside is that it's messy. You have to either mop up affter it while it is catalyzing and oozing out of the holes, or else shave it off a razor later on. I think it's easier to mop & lightly sand when cured. </FONT></DIV> <DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV> <DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Ed</FONT></DIV> <BLOCKQUOTE style="PADDING-RIGHT: 0px; PADDING-LEFT: 5px; MARGIN-LEFT: 5px; BORDER-LEFT: #000000 2px solid; MARGIN-RIGHT: 0px"> <DIV style="FONT: 10pt arial">----- Original Message ----- </DIV> <DIV style="BACKGROUND: #e4e4e4; FONT: 10pt arial; font-color: black"><B>From:</B> <A title=lightfoot@sc.rr.com

If I hold the fuselage the right wing panel can wiggle up and down a noticable amount. I thought that maybe the tube mount at the fuse was loose but that was not the case. As it turns out, the phenolic in my completed wing is loose about 3/4 of the way down and is wiggling around. It almost feels like the foam in the sheeted foam core wing has been somehow dislodged and the phenolic is in just a hollow cavern instead of solidly glued to the wing. It is still glued solid at the root so it won't slide out, but it obviously can not be flown in that condition.<o:p></o:p></SPAN></FONT></div></DIV> <DIV> <div class=MsoNormal style="MARGIN-LEFT: 0.5in"><FONT face="Times New Roman" size=3><SPAN style="FONT-SIZE: 12pt"> <o:p></o:p></SPAN></FONT></div></DIV> <DIV> <div class=MsoNormal style="MARGIN-LEFT: 0.5in"><FONT face="Times New Roman" size=3><SPAN style="FONT-SIZE: 12pt">Question:<o:p></o:p></SPAN></FONT></div></DIV> <DIV> <div
