Download Landing Gear dimensions
Wheel pants - B&B 86" Laser (30% laser) #122 from
Fiberglass Specialties
Canopy - 90" WS Super Chipmunk - Aerotech Models
Cowl - 30% Laser will work. Fiberglass Specialties has one. If you look closely at the pictures,
the difference between it and the Laser cowl is the side cheeks. On the Laser,
the cheeks close to the back of the cowl. On the Akro, they are straight back,
and are open at the back of the cowl.
2 sheets hand drawn plans by Mr. Goerne included with Fuse Kit. The plans show
the built up wing, stab, and fin. 1 sheet 36 x 70 , 1 sheet 36 x 90. Plans are
designed for the scratch builder, so parts are on the plans.

The wing isn't priced with shipping. It is an oversized
package, so it varies a lot between shipping destinations. You can call email me
before you order with your zip code so I can give you a shipping price. I will
add the shipping to your order when I receive it, either by adding the amount of
the shipping to your credit card, or sending you a Pay Pal invoice for the
shipping.
The wings are in a box that is 46" long x 12" high by 21"
wide, and 7 pounds, if you want to check on a shipping price on
www.ups.com. From zip 72631 to your address.

More 'In the Bones' pictures of the original build (taken
from some badly scanned slides) with a built up wing. Not real good
quality, but will give you a good idea about construction.

the slides, I will re-scan them.
