Jim Maupin used to live a few k from home.A few of us would have
Saturday breakfast with him in his later years (he'd be smoking while on
Oxygen). Several locals know a lot about his designs, so I'll ask about
deflections when I get home.
Unfortunately Lockheed Skunk Works engineer Irv Culver, who designed the
Woodstock's wings, is no longer with us to ask.

Hi Chris
I can't find anything either. Re. the deflections, I have only the
ailerons (32deg UP, 8deg DOWN) and the elevator (20deg UP, no info for
down). No rudder deflections and certainly no weak link. The plans and
the construction notes are available on the web, but I guess you know
that already.
There was one built in Australia when Mike Burns was CTO Airworthiness
(about 1987 or so) so he may have some recollections of the technical
information for that aircraft.
All the best
Graham

*Subject:* [Aus-soaring] Woodstock weak link
Hi all,
I have tried to find out what the Woodstock aerotow weak link should
be but cannot find anything. There is no woodstock in the GFA data
sheets either.
I hope somebody can help.
Regards
Chris
