Hello Everybody
I've been wondering about the wing's main spar. Obviously with the vertical grain balsa webbing and the hardwood spars, the main spar is very strong. My only concern is that the spar is not continuous. It is interruped by the foam rib. I'm wondering if this is something to be concerned about? Perhaps because of the length of the rib, its not a weakness at all. Any thoughts? Obviously building a wing with a continuous front and rear spar would greatly complicate the building process and perhaps would not buy you anthing.
Thanks again for the detailed pictures and construction techniques.
