Sorry about the cedar comment. I had a picture of mahogony in what little brain I have left, and it came out as cedar instead. They kind of look alike, from about a hundred yards or so.
I don't have a manual in front of me right now, but I believe the manual says that either mahogany or birch is fine for skinning the fuselage, but when it comes to spars, birch is required. I may be wrong, but that's what I remember. I'll try to find an exact reference tonight. Somebody else is welcome to check for us...
