Seaplane crash details

Mike;
If you're interested in 7AC's I think Todd Pattist bought one recently. You
might want to check with him on whatever fabric tests he did.

I tried to post some bitmap images with this but it didn't come up on my

Concerning the Chalks seaplane crash in Miami, fatigue features were
observed in the lower spar cap of the rear spar of the inboard end of the
right wing, bisecting 2 offset drilled holes.

Send them to me.

I've got the web space to share them.

I'm not a lawyer, I'm just an engineer that is interested in metal
fatigue and aging aircraft.

In particular, I'm going to buy an old 7AC or L-16.

I believe Steven P. McNicoll flys a 7AC.

I think you're right. McNicoll does fly a Champ!
Good luck with your quest. The Champ is a fine old bird.
