 |
|
What might the suggested diameter be for the inspection/access holes for the fuel sending units. They are about 3" in diameter. I am going to use doublers with nut plates to install them. Has anyone actually had to get to them after the top skin is on? I assume the plate should be .025, but what about the doubler?
Thanks in advance

When owning previous airplanes I have had the need to both inspect the tank connections and get at the fuel senders. Thus, when I did my 801's wings I swapped the inboard and outboard skins. The outboard( now inboard ) skins are attached with screws and nutplates.
The idea you describe sounds okay, though watch the clearance with the nutplates. Even if they do not contact the tanks, you might want to make sure there is cork to ensure they do not vibrate on the tank.
Thoughts to consider....
Happy Building
