Hi Dave,
I went through the archives and found this email from you last year. I'm now ready to proceed with my wing spars, and wanted to be sure I understood them fully before cutting metal.
Here's my question. You say that the spar layout on 6W3 (for long range tanks) shows 2 short and 1 long hat stiffener (6W8). I would agree that both the rivet layout elevation (top of page) and the cap/stiffener/NRA diagram (middle of the page) support that part count. Why, then, do you think they show two long and two short hat stiffeners in the top view (between the other two elevations)? I'm assuming it was just a mistake.
I was in Orlando on business for 3-1/2 days last week and leave tomorrow for a solid week in Chicago. I'm trying to steal a few hours in the garage today so I can make a little forward progress on these spars.
How's it going on your wings?
Stay warm.
LW

Page 6-K-0 of the plans shows the dimensions and spar layout for the standard tanks. There are 2 long and 2 short hat stiffeners specified in the plans for the standard tanks. Page 6-W-3 shows the spar configuration for the long range tanks which specifies 2 short and 1 long stiffeners. Note that the location of LNRA#4 is different for the standard tanks. I think ZAC should have put the drawings for the standard tanks on 6-W-3 and the optional long range tanks on page 6-K-0. That seems to be more logical, to me.
