Short Description: Front nose rib alignment
|
The ribs need to be checked for proper alignment with the wing skins and the spar cap to prevent any denting and puckering when the skins get riveted to the ribs/spar. To check the alignment, I made up two skin templates to simulate the overlap of the 0.025" wing skins as they attach to the ribs and spar cap. 6 of the ribs lined up perfectly. The other 6 ribs will require require some adjustment to get then aligned properly. I have started that process.
This rib aligns properly with the wing skins and the spar cap.
|
This rib does not and will require some re-alignment ith the existing holes.
|
Rib now aligns perfectly with ing skins and spar cap.
