A new builder here in Indianapolis is looking for the Center Wing upper and lower main spar extrusions. Anyone out there know where we can find them? Eklund has the upper one available but not the lower one.

Thanks for the post Roy. It's good somebody can keep my project going while I'm sitting on my butt in meetings in Minneapolis all week.

Classic Sport and Eklund do not have the lower extrusions. We need to find a source or an alternate for them. It getting harder to find materials to build our lovely airplane ... somehow we need to remedy this.

When Bob and I visited and stayed with Richard he tok us on a tour of JT's shop. I noticed he had about a dozen upper blank spar and aked if he had the lowers. NO GOT was the answer. He indicated he would sell two uppers and said you could cut down the upper and make it a lower. He also indicated he would not produce any lowers as for the cost. So, with that said, he has 6 spars. Does anyone know where the original dies are?

What is CSA using ? ??? Anyone ask Mike ? :o I don't think it would be a trade mark issue, if someone already has the plans and just needs to know the material type ! :P
