May 14, 2021 4 Moved to airport hangar for wing drilling Category: General
Rod S and Mike H graciously assisted me in bringing both wings, ailerons, flaps, struts, and fuselage out to Airdrie Airport. We borrowed space in a hangar of a friend to do this. The wings are now sitting on the wing stands. There is some lumber there for building saw horses for the fuselage to lift it up to the height of the wings (just over my head). A sawhorse is needed since the gear is not yet on the fuselage.and I want to be able to walk under the wing while working. It looks like the main spar will be drilled from the front, which will require a 12 “ extension be welded to the end of my 3/8” reamer and the drill bit which is 1/64 under that. The aft spar is accessible from the back without issue, so the 6” bits will work there.
