				Gary, I can't quite picture where the doublers would go. Are you
 saying doublers on the skin, internal or external, or gusseting
 the corners of the stiffeners together?
 
 My favorite change would be to make the stiffeners into a frame
 by either outright replacement, or riveting on angles to form an
 inner flange. Just about any flange would stop the buckling
 shown in a recent post.

 If you look at the frame just ahead of the one in question, you can see it 
 has a small (1/4 inch) bent flange on the inside - making the stiffeners 
 more U-shaped than L-shaped.
 
 It seems to me that this would stop the buckling seen on my plane, and only 
 cost 0.01 of a pound...:
