 |
|
A comment was made a little while back that trimming to the scribe line for
the door opening left the flange too short. How much would you add? Say
1/8" short of the line and then fine tune when the door are installed?
Suggestion appreciated......john

Just a little heads up on the doors, we have seen that even though fitting
the halves together is still good, that the marks that mark the holes where
you cleco the door to the airframe (where the rivets were left out) do not
always hold good. We use little blocks of wood around the perimeter of the
door to get a fairly equal spacing and then drill to match the rivet holes.
We have seen the scribe marks as much as 3/4 in off, which would make for a
horribly-fitting door.
Hope this may help some.
