The quickbuild is truly a great head start towards  an airplane.   The only negative to it, is that you have to figure out  what Van's has and has not done.   Obviously that can be accomplished  in a relatively short time.   While going through the drawings  yesterday and checking off what has been done, I noticed on Drawing 34 that  there are 12 AN - 4 bolts that go through the F704 center  section.    While the top bolts will be easy to tighten, the  bottom row will be a little "challenging".    Just curious if any  of you remember if these bolts were already in place when you got  your

 QB kit?

  

 Thanks,

 John Brunke

Take nothing for granted! Start at the front of each

section of the instructions for the wing and fuse if

QB and go through the motions. You'll need to know

these parts as things come together anyway.

John, I think I remember getting my wife to start the nuts  as she could get her hand down in the center section.  A long set of  forceps would work too.

Thanks Bill.   I used an open end wrench  with a piece of tape covering one end with the nut stuck inside.    Then used a crescent wrench

 to make an extension for the wrench.   I  had a good friend help me.   The reason he's a good friend, was after  we put on three bolts

 this way, I realized that a washer gets put on the  bolt side also.    I think that's one of the few places I have  seen that so far on the kit.

 Of course we had the learning curve down by then  and it didn't take quite as long to put them on a second time.   It's  funny how little things

 like that all of a sudden "appear" on the  drawing.   At least it wasn't an expensive mistake.

  

 Thanks,

John
