Hello all, first post here, be gentle. I recently acquired a T-Bird II and am not keen on the replacement cost of a complete sail set at nearly $3K. I'm trying to determine if it is possible to change the entire aircraft to a "standard" aircraft covering. The way I understand it, I can rivet the wing ribs to the spars through the poly tip rib ends, then cover with Stewart or Stits processes, preferably with a 1.8oz cloth. Does the wing structure need any additional spar or reinforcement to maintain the airfoil?
Advice appreciated.
