You can sell them of give them away, but this is a package deal.
If you don't want the other wings, I will give them away for you.

There was nothing tongue in cheek about it. He claimed the subject
matter was off topic and that people anyone who joined the thread was
spamming the list. Then he started talking about his stork. That's
called deliberate thread hijacking. I guess I should be amused.

I'll bet far fewer than who are responding to this issue have built a kit in
recent years or ever intend to.
Is anyone actually building something for soaring? Tell us about it and what
your experience with it is. That could be a worthy contribution.

What do those of you do, who bag wings in which the waxed carriers have been

How do you fill the spot, fill any exposed weave level it to adjacent paint,
