Hello,

I'm new here, let me introduce myself shortly:
My name is Stefan and I am from Europe, and I bought a year ago, a Piper J3 project.

Now I have a problem and although the fuselage skeleton is in a very poor condition. (pretty much everything is bent and rusted)

An acquaintance of mine is aircraft welder, and therefore I have to build a completely new front fuselage.

Now I have some questions about this.

Are there any detailed drawings for the short skeleton, where you will find the whole dimensions of the individual tubes??

And which materials to use exactly??

The construction of a fuselage jig is no problem for me.
The whole metal works prepare me no worries.


Accordingly, I would make a completely new fuselage skeleton, myself, and do NOT BUY one.


Where you finded this continued accurate drawings, technical data, and so on??

Sincerely yours

best and thanks in advance for the answers.

Stefan
