Moose: Droop tip install
Posted: Sun Feb 19, 2012 4:26 pm
Can't believe it...I think I'm going to jump. Shoot, the hangar is on ground level so I can't do that. Wait, I could get up on the roof.
Geez, I put on the right wing-tip. Look beautiful. Got everything ready to put the LEFT droop-tip on. Trim the tip on my work-table. Just beautiful. Carry the tip over to the wing to slip over the stringer and spar extensions.
What? Huh?
@$#@% @%$^&&*$%* #^#&#$&#
Guess what? When I picked up my fast build and tip kit--YEP, I have TWO (yes 2) RIGHT tips and NO left tip. ARGH!!
Bet it would cost a fortune to ship a correct LEFT WING DROOP TIP. I can't believe this!
Got any ideas? All I can think of are:
- Find something going to the states and piggy-back on the shipment.
- Spend HUGE bucks to ship just for one wing tip to Colorado
- Somehow make a mold and create a new tip (major hours and effort that may not pay off as desired)
- ????
Boy oh boy, I could scream. Skip the beer; Time for the scotch.
HELP!
