Longeron Angle Material ID

[Ken Martin]

I couldn't find this after searching the archives.

Does anyone know for sure if the RV-7/7A longerons are made from 6065-T6? .125 x 3/4 x 3/4

Also, the 705 bulkhead, wing rear attach bar material? Is that 6065-T6? (.125 x 1.5")

Thanks,

My 9A longeron angle material is marked 6061-T6. I bought an extra when I had my wing kit shipped, in case I messed one up on the fuselage. Thankfully I managed to get them right, so the extra is hanging on my wall.

Thanks Kurt. I had a brain freeze...I meant 6061.
