that I have never personally seen a CriCri,. I seem to recall reading a lot
of the skins are 0.010 aluminum. (Cringe)

I have a set of the CriCri plans, and I have to say that I'm pretty
impressed with the drawings and the general instructions. I wouldn't
buy them from pirates such as this guy, but they are worth having if
only for their guidance on working with light-gauge metal and mixing
metal and Klegecell or PVC foam.

I skimmed the plans and didn't find any references to skins thinner
than 0.4mm (0.016"). That's a pretty typical skin thickness even for a
lot of Cessna parts. I know that Aeronca ailerons are riveted up out
of a lot of .016" parts including ribs, spars, and D-skins.

Thanks, Bob K.

Add to that -

Most of the Zodiac skins are .016 as well.

Thanks again for the correction. A thickness of .010 did seem too much like
Reynolds Warp, but it was what I thought that I recalled.
