Neat film!! The tube welding sequence took me right back to A&P school in the mid 60's and having Andy Anderson, the airframe Instructor spending what seemed like three hours critiquing my 5 tube welds 'this and that, and this, and theres enough of a hole here to sink a rowboat....'.  Is it just me, or is about half the early assembly work welding being done on a PA-11 CRUISER? If not, that's one damned wide J-3
