 Posted: Sat May 04, 2013 2:14 pm Post subject: Top Aft Skin Question... |
 |
|
Well, its unbelievable, but I was cleaning the shop this morning and accidentally pushed the bandsaw (on a rollaround) into the back of the fuselage and put a scratch and dent into the Aft Top Skin. It wasn't yet riveted, but I was all finished and dimpled. I guess at least it wasn't the side of the fuselage where replacement would be nearly impossible. But still. Waa.
Anyway, I went to order a replacement today and put in the part number "F-825" (F-825-1) is on the plans. I got two hits back:
TOP SKIN, AFT
F-825-1
$126.40
TOP SKIN, AFT -8
F-825PP
$124.00
What's the difference? The PP suffix probably means "pre-punched", but I think the F-825-1 is probably pre-punched as well.
My fuselage is late model, order last year in QB form.
Thanks,
Matt
