Re: Wing Load Testing -- Wing damage

Thanks Paul: The shearweb is involved with one of the cuts (the other goes barely into the top surface of the wing). I plan to repair the shearweb the same way I repair the rest of the glass. I am

Re: Quickie Owners / Builders "near" Newnan GA?

Thanks for the reply. I am actually looking for a Q1 though as that is what I am planning to build. Your offer is much appreciated though. Does anyone know of Dennis Clark's where abouts these

Re: Wing Load Testing -- Wing damage

How about those two cuts in the trailing edge? If they are on the centre section inside the fuselage they will have severed the shearweb. If outside then the 3.5" cut may have come close. If the

Re: Wing Load Testing -- Wing damage

Re: Wing Load Testing -- Wing damage

Mike, I am sorry we didn't spend more time on this subject Saturday. I recommend following the Q2 plans for the repair, page 3-19 para 4.2. For testing, I would think supporting the wing at

Re: Wing Load Testing -- Wing damage

Mike, Follow the repair plans in the plans manual. I think it states to sand back each ply and expose at least one inch of each ply. So the sanding needs to be a sort of scarf. Then re-apply the
