I searched the archives but could find nothing on Aspen. I was looking for Douglas fir at the lumberyard and saw some Aspen planks that had a very fine grain (about 18 lines per inch). I'm not sure of the strength of this wood and wonder if it could be used for the uprights between the longerons and maybe the intercostals between the spar caps.

It has a shorter fibre length and is thus not suitable for use where high tensile stresses are present. I would steer well clear.

Patrick, There are several places that list wood properties, here is one: http://www.woodbin.com/ref/wood/strength_table.htm . Specific gravity and crushing strength parallel to the grain are the first properties to consider, but they all are important. Larry Harrison built his Pietenpol AirCamper from Yellow Poplar. I am not sure if Yellow Poplar is Big Tooth or Quaking Aspen. The USDA Forest Products Laboratory in Madison, WI is very helpful if you have any questions concerning wood properties.

That means that when the book was published in 1951, aspen was not considered to be an aircraft grade of wood. In that reference, there are about 40 different types of wood where mechanical data is listed.

That is too narrow to be used on a KR2, but there is a way that it might be used after modification. The gear could be cut diagonally between the bends. The main support would be essentially the same and there would be a hole drilled at the end of the taper. This hole would be used to attach the narrow end of the gear leg to a second pair of mounting brackets. There is a picture of one like this in Tony Bingelis' "Sport Plane Construction Techniques" on page 247. Since a Sonori is approximately the same weight as a stock KR2, the gear should be adequate.

Same quality, less money. Your local A&P should have them in stock, so you can compare.
