I am new to this group thing-- sure like it..Am about finished with w-l0 wings and having trouble skinning the small area on the top next to the root rib. Can...
I have also had the virus and sent it to several others without knowing, sorry to those who received it from me. Could not figure how to get a cleaner from the...
I am contacted several times every month by someone looking for Don Madden. Apparently the phone numbers listed in the Tailwind Times have been disconnected....
Jerry, my vote is for the long prop. Infact I believe it to be a trend as well. More people now buying 70 inch props as opposed to the 68 inch standard. A lot...
-Hi Gordon, The leading edge stays the same all the way to the root rib. Cover the trianglular area with the grain of the ply. going the same way as the short...

Rick I for one would sure like to see pictures of your progress as you go along. Thanks. Dave ... From: "Rick and Cindy" <rcaviate@...> To: "Tailwind...
Tailwinders: I did a little research because I have seen several e-mails recently from people in several groups I am a member of, including the Tailwind Forum...
I made the leading edge cap thicker at the root rib i.e. the chordwise dimension is approx 3/4" at rib #2 tapering to 1 1/4 or whatever looks right at root...
The traffic on the Tailwind Forum for November was nearly equal to the total for the previous three months. This is probably in response to the usefulness of...
Lou, thanks for the picture which shows how Dave Morrow gets to his horizontal stab bolts. This picture has also prompted another question. On all the...
The tailwind is a great little plane and a match for most RVs, but quite a bit cheaper to build. I think if more parts were available commercially, it would...
Ron: I don't know if there is a better way, but I first covered the vertical stab, gluing the fabric to the bottom rib, then when I covered the top of the...
We covered the vertical fin then covered the aft part of the fuselage by letting the fabric go from the right longeron to the left longeron under the lower...
Dan Madden can be reached at 608-356-7127. This is not the number that is in the Tailwind Times. He is still in the Tailwind Cowl business and is looking...
Replying to my own message: I just tried to e-mail Dan using "reply" to the address listed below and the message was returned undelivered due to a "fatal...
Be sure to write Don Madden's email address in lower case. His ISP will kick back the message otherwise. This tip came from Dallas Benham. If you just hit...
Well Gang, the FAA says I'm good to go flying. After an inspection of the aircraft--no squawks (didn't even mention the venturi on the side)--and a review of...
Dave, Thanks for the information and pictures. Lou suggested the same method on the vertical stab, but managed to cover under the stab across the longerons, ...
Ron: I didn't have enough room to fabric across the bottom of the fin as my bottom rib was bent a little to conform to the fuselage. Also the fin spars get in...
I heated my misaligned gear leg at the bottom crook and made it like the other one. Will take it into the spring shop for re-heat treating tommorrow. Picture...
