Jan 03, 2007     Hanging the flap - (2.4 hours)       Category: Wings
Drilled out all holes on the flap brace and wing skin. Clecoed the bottom wing skin in place and drilled out the remaining holes in the flap brace. Measured, cut and bent the flap hinge wire. Test-fit the flap to the wing. Lined up the trailing edge with the aileron, and positioned the flap to give the required 1/4" spacing from the aileron. Marked the hinge. Trimmed about 1/8" off the flap skin so it will clear the wing spar. Clamped the flap in place and devised a method to drill the skin/brace/hinge. Sanded, cleaned and primed the flap brace.
