Spar butt dimensions in 1-26E

[Bart[_4_]]

All,

Does anyone happen to be near a 1-26E? I need to know the width and
height of the spar butt.

Thanks!

Is it different from other models? I can be near an A/B in a couple of hours...

I have no idea. If I had to I guess I would say that the dimensions
will be either the same or very close. In any case, I am not risking
much, so data for A/B will be welcome :-)

Thanks,
Bart

Area going thru fuselage is about 7-1/2 high and 1 inch thick.

It's a little bit thinner than one inch - maybe 0.9. A 0.75 thick
plank fit just fine. Here is the result :https://picasaweb.google.com/

Hey, I am not complaining! If I went by my memory, I would have
assumed 1.5 inch :-)

Paint. While I like the bare metal look, it would make the glider
somewhat stealthy.
