Posted: Fri Dec 14, 2007 4:25 am Post subject: uni straps at wing root

I've almost finished (well, apart from finishing & painting, of 

course) my first wing.



I've done the UNI straps on the upper surface at the root, but when I 

turned it over and started marking out to do the ones on the bottom, 

I found that the aft end of the UNI overlaps the W18 flap bracket. 

There's no mention of this in the manual.



I assume that it just needs the end of the longest UNI ply to be slit 

and fitted each side of the W18, but I thought I'd better check first 

in case something more clever is needed. However, when I phoned a few 

minutes ago I found the factory has already gone off for the weekend.



Has anyone else got any factory advice about this?



regards



Rowland
