Wow! I was thinking of this kind of structure for F1M when reading about
Bill's new Pennyplanes, but did not realize that the structure would be
feasible also for F1D. From the picture it seems that you have vertical
grain balsa between the carbons? Do you laminate it to a larger sheet
and then strip individual spars? If the carbon pre-cured and then glued
to the balsa core, or do you glue it while laminating?
