Still busy with that major overhaul to my KR2. After a long and tedious 
struggle, I got all the WAFs out. For that, I had to remove the ribs, and 
I now have remake them. Luckily, my wing skins are pre-molded, so no skin 
foam in the way! The holes are pretty clean, so it should be as simple as 
preparing some ribs, and sliding them in place.

Questions:

- I intend to use 40mm (1.57") extruded polystyrene foam, with big 
lightening holes, plus a layer of 1 mm plywood (0.04"). How does that 
sound?
- What should I use to glue the plywood to the foam? (I have been told 
about some glue that they use in the construction business, any idea what 
that would be?)
-  What should I use to glue the foam to the skin? Epoxy plus 
microballoons? 


(And for all of you who are frustrated to feel that they are not going 
forward fast enough, just think of me, who is slowly but surely 
disassembling a KR that was in perfect FLYING condition! ;-)
