    I have a company to make it, I just don't want to have it done and then sit on the stuff for the next 20 years. This is my last and final taylorcraft build besides my clipwing which I am going to build wood wings for.

    Hank,

    I hear you!
    if it is not correct I pity the seller. I have some great contacts to deal with federal issues...

    Mike,

    I tried recently with a spring company in Detroit.. They had the right diameter wire. They went radio silent on me after I sent the engineering drawing. I never said it was for aviation nor did the drawing indicate any such thing. I may have stumbled onto the guys making the Martin wire

    started a topic who had the wing wire?

    who had the wing wire?

    I need enough to do a pair of wings. Not sure how much of the original wire is reusable. Just prefer to install new. Thanks.
Working...
