When I built my first airplane, there was no internet, only by letter...
or by EXPENSIVE international phone calls from here...
One good thing for all of us, is not to be shy to comment, every post will help someone else.
Expert builders, a few, learning builders, the rest of us. Newbies always coming, hope they keep subscribing, so the process don't stop...
I remember, my first letter I wrote to the designer of my first project, a JN-1 single seater ultralight. Was asking the designer what a "tinnerman nut" was, He answered me (the letter got here 3 months later) that I should NOT build an airplane with my poor knowledge I felt bad about it.
6 months later a friend gave as a souvenir from his visit to Usa, a Spruce Catalog (two year old at the time), a give away from his brother's neighbor in California... Its weight in gold for me!
There I knew what "that" nut was (saw the drawing), we use them here, but with another name, by the way, the JN-1 was never started, we did not use the Dow foam here at that time.
Still have the plans... Maybe some time later...

M too, Tommy! I wish I'd found out about it a2 or 3
years ago. Would have
saved me lots of mistakes and redoes. Even now I'm
leaning all kids of good
things from all you guys!
