Spar Completion

Post by PlaneDan »

As most of you know, this is the second kit of about 6 for the Panther. I started the build of this project on February 17, 2014 and as of last Saturday, June 22, 2014, I readied the Spar Kit for rivet squeezing and ordered the Super Squeezer from SPA. The riveting was completed on July 5, 2014.
I want to say that I am extremely impressed with the design of this spar. I am by no means an expert, in fact, I am a novice. This is not only a "work of art", but appears to be engineering genius, to me.
To see the process that I went thru, use the link included in this post.
The Tail Cone and Wing Kits are scheduled to arrive my location on Monday the 14th of July, which is tomorrow.
