Yo!

Weird request -

Anybody got a wing rib? laugh

Doesn't matter from where or what. Metal or wood (wood would be cool, however.) I just wanna use it as a wall ornament. I'd like it in decent condition - not bent up or broken.

Also, an instrument panel would be cool. I have a complete six-pack plus a bit, and wanna also use it as house decorations.

If the rib is from an ADAM airplane, well... we already know ole Adam is missin' a rib.


...ducking...

Thanks!

Maybe you could talk Reg into making an extra one, unless he's done making the ribs for his Wag-a-Bond Traveler.

Yeah, but that would entail too much time for those guys. It's time-consuming enough for them to make one... plus, the cost of materials.

I may have and extra C120 rib or two you could have. I know I have a few that are not serviceable but do not look all beat up. They may have some cracks or missing a tab to rivet it to the spar. I will have to look to know for sure. Sound like something you may be interested in?

PM sent back! grin
Here are some pictures of my 120 wing just before covering to give you a size reference. I shamelessly included a picture of the same wing once I got it covered. laugh [Linked Image] [Linked Image] [Linked Image]
