Stripping the left wing

 The left wing came from the Ok parts run. This wing was covered in Razorback and someone painted it in this terrible primer. I have tried all kinds of paint stripper but nothing has worked. I guess I will have to try MEK.

TKI Racing landing gear options

 TKI has two options for the experimental Stinson. https://store.tk1racing.com/

2. A Strut replacement. 

Neither of these are STC’d and would have to be a field approval.
