Hey folks, where do you buy quality plywood? By quality, I mean 5 ply, "aircraft" rated.
All I can find locally is 3 ply, looks like thin birch veneer over thicker basswood? Several brands, all say "not for aircraft use".
The "not for aircraft" stuff has interior checks, splits, and voids, so really doesn't last well.
Checked a couple manufacturer web sites, Midwest and another I forget, they do not even list anything other than 3 ply.
I found some birch poplar birch laminate, which might be better than basswood core.
Maybe all that from the Before Times is just gone now?
