From: jon kimmel Subject: KR> Aero-core It appears to be end grain balsa...bonded to plywood...and cut into strips. It looks like they bonded the strips together on a mold...the strength of the whole system is in the fiberglass on the inside and out. I'm convinced it is strong enough...my only concern is convincing the FAA it is strong enough. I think it was built around 1999. It!s funny that this is called a boat section because this thing looks like a canoe and would float. It has no corners and just flows from nose to tail. Oh well...if nobody has heard of it I will be styling at the kr gatherings.
Hey John, When AeroCore was first introduced, I wrote them asking for a sample, just small piece of a single strip, Never did receive it, not even an acknowledgement. Would you mind shooting me some pics, or do you have a blog somewhere? Thnx in advance, Mike Bynum
