Now that you guys have everything figured out, I'll step in and mention something. If you head over to Todd Trainor's site www.aeronca.com and click on "Aeronca Factory Drawings." You have to register to view the drawings, but once you do, scroll down to drawing 7-450 "Frame Assembly - Fuselage" and click on it. Now it's a big drawing and may take a while to down, and I'd forget it if you're on dial-up. But it should show you everything you need.

Hope this helps.

Nathan,

Thanks, maybe I'll try it late at night after all other things are finished. Unfortunately I have a phone connection.

I'm not sure I have this straight yet but I think Mike Knemeyer is going to make the extra prints? If so, Mike, include me for a copy and let me know the cost.

Mike,

I got the copy and it looks great. Thanks a million. A lot of good information. I would like to hang it on the hanger wall but I am afraid it will get destroyed.

What do I owe you?

Once again, thanks,

Dennis

Dennis,

If anyone is in the mood to donate, a donation to Todd Trainor for all his help on these drawings would really be appreciated. I went in with another member several years ago and donated funds to him to get a large scanner, but probably need to do it again for all the help he has provided the community.

So far its almost all been out of his pocket and I know the cost has been substancial at times.

Dennis,

I tried by email to pay Mike K for the print but he refused.

He said "Cost for the first one is that you continue to help Aeronca's in trouble"

I tried to download from Todd's site but my dial up choked on it.
