Wing kit

Anyone waiting on a wing kit may be disappointed. I only need one part, the aileron pushrod, and was told they can’t source it and it may be fall before it’s a available.

It’s just a powered coated metal tube. How can this be so hard?

It just makes it more critical not to make mistakes during the build because you never know if the part you screwed up will be on back order forever.
 
My wing kit, picked up in mid-April, has parts backordered that are needed in the first section. Fortunately there's plenty other things to do. I'm on my 4th concurrently open section. Be thankful it's just the pushrod, IMHO.

It is not hard at all, if the material that it is made form could be purchased.

There is none available on the open market right now. We bought all we could, when we could, but the storage rack is going empty.
