Brief Description: Intersection Fairings - New Direction
|
|
After more sanding of my laid-up intersection fairings, I just did not like how things were going. Fortunately, you can buy fairings, so I did. Arrived today, and they fit well right out of the box. Fitted each fairing on the wheel pant / gear leg intersection, located and matched drilled #40 four holes in each fairing, two forward and two aft, the fairing can be located on the pant after removal.
There are a few options on how I can attach the fairings, I can epoxy in place, and split along the line of the forward and aft pant, or I can attach using AN screw to platenuts installed on the interior of the pant. Undecided, and will not decide until I remove all from the airframe and work on the bench.
