Acrosport II

Post by burnsa » Sat Nov 10, 2018 9:14 pm

Looking to start building an Acrosport II and I live in Teesside. Is there anybody nearby presently building a welded 4130 tube fuselage as I could do with some help, advice and inspiration!

Once my plans for my AS1 arrive, the frame will be cut, notched and tack welded by a friend (and me) from the Cornwall strut then I will get a CAA welder in to do all the proper welds, thus saving a huge amount of CAA welders time adn me a lot of money, thats the plan anyway :D

Sorry just seen this reply. Presently trying to teach myself welding! Blown some large holes in the side of some tubes no where near ready to begin construction! Very kind contributor on "The Biplane Forum" has found me some plans for the Acrosport 11. If you drop me an email on [email protected] I can share some of the info, they are very detailed an an education in themselves. Andy
