Rowland…IMHO, it is a real stretch to interpret fig. 8
as "a suggestion that a 25 mm flange is OK”…personally, I
would not consider trimming the top fuselage flange at
the firewall for even a nanosecond, given its obvious
contribution to the rigidity to the airframe…I read fig.
8 as an un-dimensioned illustration of the relationships
of the various components at this critical
intersection…nothing more...Fred
