- hi There,
- I ALWAYS glass the wing centres on everything I build - there is no such thing
- as a plane that wont need it sometime to me. I have seen an oldtimer that
- wasn't glassed 'because its never going to go fast, so I wont need to do any
- high G pullouts' ! guess what - he got crossed up, lost orientation, into a
- dive, and a high G pullout - clap hands everybody! Some wings need it less
- than others if they have good dihedral braces, but they still need something
- to spread out the loads.
