I was wondering which way you installed your F-423 side skins on the longerons, the plans don't seem real clear on it:



a: Make the top of the F-423 side skins flush with the top of the longerons?



b: Raise the side skins .040 so they will be flush with the top of the F-416 cockpit rails when they are installed later?



option b would hide the F-416 cockpit rails from outside, however, the two rv-4s I have looked at recently did it the option a way.

Regards,

 Hi Tom,

 

 I did mine flush with the top of the longerons.

Hi Hal,



So far its 3 people that did their rv-4 side skins flush with the top of the longerons to 0 who raised the skins to cover the cockpit rail.
