Just received a press release that Wicks has taken delivery of a quantity of Spruce. Release reads:
After months of waiting, Wicks Aircraft Supply has received a new shipment of aircraft grade Sitka spruce, suitable for spars, cap strips and T-stringers. They are now able to offer spars up to 1.25 inches thick by 9 inches wide with lengths up to 20 feet. Most common spar orders can be shipped in a week or less.
Might be worth a look if you're building a wooden design, these materials are becoming increasingly difficult to get hold of. www.wicksaircraft.com.
