Airventure 2022 wind damage.
A flyer, not a builder, so I'm hitting frequent road blocks.
I just want to build a new rudder, PLEASE.
I'll have help building it. I've build a rudder from another kit decades ago and at that point I said to myself, "enough of that, I'll stick to flying."
Funny thing - the plans that came with the plane are missing diagrams 4-9.
But I can get them. I've ordered the shtick. AND I can see digital copies.
SOOO, I called Van's, "want to order a new rudder, please." Nope, can't do that; you have to submit a list of parts! So I go to the digital diagrams, start looking up part numbers and hit another road block... the stiffeners have letters after the R-915 numbers, (A - H) but those part numbers don't come up on the list to add to your cart.
Help.
There's got to be an easier way, you know, for a flyer JUST TO GET A NEW RUDDER!
