8 Aircraft Ground Handling and Servicing<br />

8.21 Aircraft Structure and Paintwork<br />

The whole airframe of the REMOS GX is produced to the latest<br />

procedures of carbon fiber composite te<strong>ch</strong>nique. We only use<br />

certified epoxy resins for construction, whi<strong>ch</strong> guarantees the most<br />

possible durability of the aircraft structure.<br />

A highly developed vacuum production process enables a constantly<br />

high stability while maintaining minimum component weight of ea<strong>ch</strong><br />

single part.<br />

This applied process in conjunction with premium 2-component<br />

acrylic paint allows to leave out the common heavy gel coat layer<br />

whi<strong>ch</strong> additionally contributes to the low aircraft weight.<br />

Great care has to be taken at all repair works to structural composite<br />

components. If ever the primer layer of a part has been sanded<br />

through, it has to be discarded! This applies to all structural parts<br />

like: stabilizer, wings, composite main gear.<br />

If in doubt contact our te<strong>ch</strong>nical support for inspection of the<br />

damaged part before proceeding the repair works.<br />

The original paint work of the aircraft is done with acrylic 2-<br />

component paint as used in the automotive industry, the following<br />

paint code is used:<br />

RAL 9003<br />
