KR> Great American Propeller Company ?

[laser...@juno.com]

If you can't find them I'd get on the Yahoo "Propeller Group" and see if
someone locally is willing to do the repair you mentioned earlier.  
If that's not viable take a picture or two of it and send them to Ed
Sterba and see if he'll repair it.  If it's just tip cracks I'm sure he'd
do it even though it's not one of his.

KR> Wing Gap Covers

Here is an interesting link for gap seal tape.

This site may be for modelers, but I think the gap seals are a great idea.

one is registered from Brazil.  People, we are celebrating the 39th year of KR

KR> Aileron Gap Covers

[Mark Jones]

>Dan, I was thinking of a gap seal for the aileron.

Aileron gap seals are very simple to make. You simplg get some mylar wide 
enough and long enough to cover the gap and apply it to the bottom of the 
wing with 3M double sided tape. Her are the links to where you can buy what 
you need. You can paint this Mylar if you wish to. I installed mine in 2005 
and have never had them come off.

KR> Wing Gap Covers

[Patrick and Robin Russo]

Dan, I was thinking of a gap seal for the aileron.  For my latest project I 
made a test set of Hor. Stab and elevator, using a piano hinges on the top 
surface...which is a flat plane. I did the tapering, 1 7/8 to 5/8 on the 
underside. The elevator spar is beveled to allow 25 degrees down play. I do 
not anticipate any loss of performance with this save for the  less than 
desireable gap on the bottom surface, much like the aileron gap. This is 
what I want to minimize.

KR> Progress Report & Another Cracked Longeron Story

[Charles Smiith]

Are the longerons already glued to the skins?  If so, why not just reinforce 
the sections in question with 2 or 3 layers of 6 oz fiberglass, wrapping the 
glass fibers over the section at a 45 degree angle and onto the skin about an 
inch.  Cover the longeron in this manner about 6? on each side of the damage.  
If you have it, it would help to underlay the glass with some carbon fiber.
