|
|
First, I would like to say a great read and pictures of your flying adventure John. I need some advice on what to use on my old Ultastar for the aileron gap seal. As far as I can see in the plans Homer didn't use the full Stits covering with polyspray. My dilema is, I want to use the polyspay. When do you attach the ailerons and the gap seal and is the gap seal just tape as used on the rest of the covering job? What I am asking is if you attach the gap seal with poly brush or poly tack then you have to have the hinges and ailerons on before spraying polyspray and paint. Or do you just glue the gap seal on top of the paint . If you do then it isn't painted. Helllllp
Thanks,Carl Tosh

Carl T/Gang:
After completion of wing and aileron construction, fit and predrill the
aileron hinges.
Cover and process both pieces through polybrush.
Attach gap seal with polytak.
Process gap seal with polybrush.
Attach hinges.
Shoot the polyspray and finish paint.
This process is more difficult than attaching bookbinding tape for gap seal
after finish paint and attachment of hinges. The right wing of my MKIII is
original. Gap seal was attached 18 years and 3,000+ hours ago. It is still
serviceable.
