Hello, everyone. Thanks for the help on the
slosh bay doors. I made a template out of foam board and need to transfer
it to the prepreg and cut it out. Is a bandsaw that right tool to use for
this? I got the slosh doors and standoffs from Lancair. The door is
2" by 2". Will I be ok putting one door in or should I put two per
wing? Should I put one big half moom at the top of the rib or should I put
two smaller ones like the other ribs have?
Next, I am trying to plan the fuel flow through
from the outer fuel bay to the inner fuel bay. The plans I got from
Lancair call for a 3" by 1/2" channel. I made a foam mold for that, but I
am wondering if I can get a bigger one in and not interfere with the aileron
pushrod. Does anyone know where in the manual it tells you to make a hole
in the spar for the pushrod to exit out of the bay? How far forward of the
rear spar is this channel placed? I assume it goes in parallel to the
forward spar...every picture I have seen has it this way and it makes
sense. Any other pointers you can give me? Will a 4" by 3/4" channel
fit there? I made a mold of it and seems I can fit it in between the rear
spar and inspection door with the required 1" flange. Thanks in
advance!
Will
