 |
|
While drilling my inboard (short) J-stiffener for the bottom wing skins the last foot or so somehow moved on me. This resulted in off-centered holes on the last 8-10 inches of the stiffener. Is there any reason I cannot cut the end off and just replace it with a new piece overlapping maybe 3-4 holes?

Bill, one RV I worked on the builder had cut a fuse J stiffener about a foot short. He didn’t want to have a gap between the stiffener and the skin at the overlap so we cut a piece to butt up to the too-short stiffener and covered it with a section of J-stiffener, don’t recall how many rivets we overlapped on each side. The Acceptable Methods book should be your guide to things like this. Keep building, it will be a ton of fun someday to fly.
