Default Quick build delivery

Eric, I am jealous! I ordered my wings and fuse about 3 months ago. Can you give me an estimate of how long you waited? Please don't make me cry.

Default I'm afraid I'll make you cry

I'd have to go back and look at my paperwork (I'm traveling right now.) But my wings were originally supposed to be ready in the July/ August timeframe. They were ready to pick up the week after Christmas. I ordered the Fuse a few months after the wings and it arrived at the same time.

I'm under the impression that a logjam broke loose so maybe you won't have to wait as long as I did!

its probably coated with WD-40 to resist corrosion during a its travel via sea can across the pacific, my RV-9A fuse was coated too. I recall giving it a "car wash" per se, by hand, inside and out with some car wash solution and dish soap. Of course I lived in San Diego so it was quite enjoyable temp wise. I think my wife was in a Bikini

As to the threads and rivets...... its a QB, not a CB.
