Hey guys I am in the final assembly stages of a 10. My questions has to do
with the gap between the fuse and the wing root fairing. My 7 has a rubber
seal to make up the gap, I cannot find this pictured or a gap specified for
the 10. Is the fairing trimmed to a 32nd and that it or did I miss the
rubber piece somewhter.
Thanks,
Tad Sargent

Yup, the fairing is trimmed to a close fit to the fuselage. There is no
rubber filler.

The -10 does not have the gap. There is an angle that rivets onto the
side of the fuse that the fairing screws onto, so it is a flush fit
with no gap for a seal.

I was thinking of using the rubber F-1094C gap seal used under the horizontal stab to provide a tighter fit and add some flexibility. Should also provide a nice clean look and a ~small gap fairing benefit. F-1094C is not on "the list" however so will have to call Van's for pricing on required length.

I think it's called "Rubber Channel" in Van's catalog.

I suspect the gap seal used on the horizontal stab might force you to trim a
fairly large gap in the fairing. Not necessarily a big deal, but I just
used narrow U channel to help seal the gap and make up for any
irregularities.
