 |
|
Can't decide if this is a good thing to do or not. I need to run conduit in my QB wings but there are no consistent tooling holes anywhere except where Vans put the pitot holes and the one tooling hole above that. (actually below if the wing is right side up).
It would be pretty easy to put a 3/4 hole in place of the pitot holes and in the tooling holes above with a 3/4 step drill and a 4 foot extension but it would get pretty close to the spar. Is there an edge distance issue with this or does it even apply? Doing it anywhere else without the tooling holes is problematic?
Any comments, suggestions, pictures appreciated. <<...>>

Bill,
I'm still deciding what path to take myself. Here's another idea that I found online that may interest you.

Hi Bill,
I am working on slow build wings and have drilled ¾ inch holes in the aft tooling hole and just aft of the larger lighting hole near the top skin. This will give me the ability to run antenna wires, lights, etc. with minimal to no EMI. Here is a link to Van’s recommended location http://www.vansaircraft.com/pdf/Wing_Wiring.pdf if you haven’t already viewed it.
Regards,
Dan
