Wayne had fix which doubled the thickness of the bulkheads and extended the
doubler 6 inches or so past the corners as well, did not need to double
skin, think there are pics on the builders site as well, or on his web site,
if not I can scan some pics I have when I did his fix

Hi Rebel builders
I have been flying my Elite 752E for a year and have
recently fitted it with Clamar composite amphib
floats.
I have noted some problems with the hard points rear
mount. They were not properly built out by the
original builder.
Can anyone send me pics of reinforced hard points or
fixes for this area. I have taken the bulkheads out
and am rebuilding it with .50 gussetts
and thicker skin .26 2024. At OSH murtec told me that
most builders were reinforcing the area by double
skinning.
Thanks for the help

Hi Garry,
I am living in Varsity Village, northwest side of
Calgary near the University. Last night was my first
night working on my SR since moving here!
By the way, you don't happen to know if there are
suppliers in Calgary of:
1) 6061 T6 sheet metal
2) general aircraft hardware and parts?
Cheers, -Jason

Greetings all,
Well I can sleep at night now! After a three
month
hiatus not being able to work on my kit, my
ocean
shipment from the UK arrived in Calgary, Alberta
on
Friday. Despite my worries, the fuselage, wings,
and
tail surfaces all emerged from the shipping
container
in excellent shape.
So I am now back in action and hope to continue
working on the fuselage starting next week. I am
just
about finished with the sheetmetal work and hope
to
start installing the control system and panel
over
the
cold Alberta winter!
The irony is that some of my household goods
sustained
damage in the move. The plane is immaculate!
Look forward to getting active again.
