Fiberglass vs. Fabric Lou 06-16-2006
Ok, I just finished reading Tony Bingelis's "sportplane builder"
section on covering a wooden plane with fiberglass instead of the
intended fabric. Has anyone in this group ever done this or some who
knows someone who has done this? I am building a wooden place that
calls for
a fabric covering. I have tried to do as much homework on this subject
as I can but still can not come up with a weight difference between
fabric and a thin coat of fiberglass. I know that the fabric isn't
structural so why cannot I subsitute a lightweight fiberglass for the
fabric?
Any feedback?
Lou
