 |
|
I'm trying to figure something out. The rear spar attachment bracket (6B5-2) shows three rows of rivet holes in parallel lines. Initially you only drill the inboard row, saving the rest for later. The bracket attaches square to the rear channel (6B5-4) which the plans tell you to trim so that the top dimension is 14 mm narrower than the bottom. Here is my question.
Nowhere in the photo guide have I found anything telling me to trim the rear channel. In addition, if I later drill the holes in the spar attachment bracket the way they are plotted the top one will have an edge distance of only three mm. It shows drilling the remaining holes in the attachment bracket in the photo guide (6B16a pgs 2 & 3), but in the photo they appear to be parallel to the original line, not sloped to adjust for any trimming. The rear spar attachment bracket sticks out through a cutout in the side skin so I assume the skin must not be at a 90° to the floor at this point if the channel must be trimmed to clear it. Is this correct?
So: Do you trim the rear channel and then later adjust the layout of the rivets to maintain edge distance or what?

The attached pictures shows what 6B5-2 and 6B5-4 (copilot side) look like in

I think what you are looking for starts on page 6-B-11C-page 4, and 6-B-16A-page 2. Your part numbers are different than mine, so I'm not sure which channel you want to trim. If the plans tell you to trim 6B5-4, then you should trim it. The plans always take precedent over the photo guide. I laid out the holes in the attach plate as shown on the plans and everything fit just fine.
