Wanted a set of those ugly, heavy, no good Demer tips. Madras or what ever name they go by. Got some in the back yard you want to get rid of, let me know. Thanks. Jerry.

..a damaged one, can be fixed but will be a pain.
Anybody have a Demer/Madras left wing tip sitting around? Have a Pacer with a damaged one, can be fixed but will be a pain.
Havent been on the threads for a while, been studying for my A&P test, but I have a set of Madras tips off my PA-12, not sure if they will fit a PA-20 wing though. I think Chris has a set off a colt project also if you still need one.
What condition is your right one in? It's only fiberglass......fixable. I'm not a fiberglass person, but I would not be afraid to tackle it if it were mine.Any chance you still have the demer tips? Need to replace the right one on my PA-12

Was wondering why the Dakota tips wouldn’t fit on I just ordered a set from Dakota to replace demer tip because the owner of the plane doesn’t like them and wants to change. Can’t see why they won’t fitYes possibly. We bought Dakota tips but realized we're going to have to replace outboard ribs and modify the aileron. I'm not a huge fan of the drooptips, but we might be stuck with them now. Where are you located? Can you send pics?

It looks to me like with the droop tips (I'm not actually sure if mine are madras or other to be honest. Do you know how to tell? ) the 2 ribs are shorter than the Dakota cub tips so we have to replace them with longer ones. Then modify the aileron so it goes straight into that junction rather than curving forward like it originally was to match up with the bowtip wing.
Google search comes up with lots of pics of tips, not sure how many different kinds of droops there were made, here is link https://www.google.com/search?q=mad...Ag&cshid=1613019034175&biw=768&bih=1024&dpr=2
Anybody know which wingtip is on this PA-12?

You have what are called Plane Booster tips. Attached the .pdf stc manual link. If you compare your wing tip to a Madras you will notice the Madras excessive droop from the leading edge back to the trailing edge of the tip, your Plane Booster tip does not have that droop, they are a strait edge along the bottom of the tip, no droop. The float has Madras tips, the Super Cub has Plane Booster tips like yours
