Are you saying you have to cut 6" off the fuselage? I guess the powers to be in England won't accept the 1000+ hours of actual flight time on just 2 KR's in the USA with much heavier 0-200 Continentals hanging on the original (with slight reinforcement in my case) firewall. Is the 3300 Jabiru really that much different in weight than the VW? Larry Flesner P.S. I seem to recall 16 rings per inch on the wood but that might just be a number I pulled out of my backside also. Wait for something more official.
