Re: Brazed Fuselage
I met with the son of the deceased builder of a Double Eagle fuselage.
The father had finished a Space Walker II, and started the Double Eagle.
The ribs, rudder pedals, and the fuselage were completed.
The landing gear is not complete.
The spoked wheels are available.
The son hasn't located the Plans yet.
Two technical questions:
1. He brazed the fuselage. Can it be unbrazed, metal cleaned, then welded?
2. He used two part epoxy for gluing the ribs. Do you think that is acceptable?
Would this project be worth buying?
How much would you pay?
Thanks.
