I am building my Super Cub wing from an experimental wing kit from D&E Aircraft.  My wing has fiberglass Horner style tips. Each panel is 16ft and is good for 2000lbs gross weight. The flaps and ailerons are approx 8ft ea.  The spars and compression members are extruded 6061 T6 aluminum. The ribs are 2024 T3.

Project Status: 2/2/2008 - Another great day!  I put the wings on my Cub for the first time. Have mostly finished the right wing.  Will start rigging and setting up all controls, flying wires, etc.  Will then finish up the extended baggage, and start on fuel system and electrics. Really satisifying to see my project looking like a real plane!
