Wow!  What an idea.  I hope you don't do it.  This one is likely to =
generate a large amount of responses. =20

First thing to do: fire the A&P.
Second thing to do: keep building it per the plans.

There is nothing wrong with the wing or the rest of the plane.  There =
are hundreds of them flying.  Like any plane, mind the numbers properly =
and all will be fine.

  Subject: [LML] True "composite" question


  Hi all.

  My LNC2 is near completion and I have started preparing all the =
paperwork necessary for the flight permit.
  During my research I have stumbeled across the NTSB website and made a =
search on "Lancair 360". For those of you who have not done that =
(probably most!), this is HORRIFIC reading !!!
  There seems to be quite a large number of stall related accidents, =
which leads me to believe that the airfoil is basically unsafe. Anyway, =
I am not going to fly this thing as is, although I have had my license =
for more than 20 years and have accumulated more than 200 hrs.
  I have now come across a set of RV-7 wings that survived a hangar =
collapse last winter. This airfoil seems much more forgiving, anyway, =
that is what my A&P says, and I am trying to come up with a way to =
install them on my otherwise finished airframe. I will, of course, have =
to keep the stub wings and make them fit the slightly larger RV wing =
but, apart from that, would I be in for at lot work? Has anyone done =
this before? Any advice taken!

  Regards
  Tim Jorgensen
  Lancair 360, was 95% done, now back to maybe 60%.....=20
