B-17 Bulkhead 3 extrusion opportunity

Post by DryMartini »

I am currently looking at having the frame parts for bulkhead #3
extruded and stretch formed. Currently, there are two airframes
signed on to participate. I am soliciting others, since this is an
opportunity to get these parts made in a quantity that would
greatly reduce the cost per part.

Bulkhead #3 separates the nose from the cockpit.

The extrusion is a Double-Tee, 2024 alloy
BAC1507-20484 section.

If anyone is interested, PM me.

What kind of costs are being talked about for each unit?
