I am so glad it has shed some light for someone . As for myself I have gotten very accustomed to having the feeling of being in the dark about 90% of the time . At 25 I thought I know every thing . Now at 61 I don't know a dang thing .So the question is have I dumbed down or was I as dumb at 25...
I posed the question just kind of thinking out loud . I had at one time a 1955 170 B best plane I ever owned . I also owned a 195 and you can't get me to say any thing bad about it but you can't really compare the to . If I had 45 min to fly I could fly the 170 out of the hanger and fly 45 min ...
It seem like I remember years ago there was a conversion done to C 150's and they were called Texas taildrager's . Have 172's ever been stitched to taildragers and if so what is involved for example does any one make a kit ?

Yes the 7eca is a steel tube fabric covered aircraft .I am trying to find out if any one has used it and if its claims have proven to hold true . It is not inexpensive so from that stand point it must be for aircraft ?
It is a product that has been around for years . Mostly marketed to the auto restoration world . The POR-15 stands for Paint Over Rust its a brush on paint . I am not suggesting I plan on painting over rust but it claims to stop rust and give a good hard finish . I have never used it but have...
As I clean up the fuselage of my Citabria I was considering using POR-15 . Has anyone used it . What other products would you recommend other than POR ?
I hate the way the change is handed back after a purchase. They give it back in a wad that leaves me standing there with my bilfold in one hand and coins paper money and a receipt in the other .
I am getting started on taking fabric off my Citabria and i know my former's /plywood bulkheads were bad . But they are so rotten on the bottom I will not be able to use them for a pattern .
I realize they can be bought from ACA and Rainbow for a reasonable price . But I have already made new...
I like the color ! How do you think my 7ECA would look that color with a couple of black stripes down the fuselage . Maybe a little black on wings but not interested in stars or scalps . Would consider top of engine cowling Black ?
