Brief Description: Wing Ribs Section 14, steps 1 to 10
11/22/2008 …. SECTION 14 WING RIBS……..Today I finished steps 1 to 10 on page 14-2. I fabricated the three pieces of aluminum. 1) W-1029C angle alum. From the .063 2024-T3 ALCAD into the item described in figure 1. 2) The W-1029D Spacer from a flat piece of .063 2024-T3 5/8 by 1 13/32 inches. 3) The W-1029E Spacer that measured 5/8 inches by 6 15/32 inches as described in figure 2. Completed Steps 3 to 8 by clamping the W-1029A Torque Tube Support Bracket to the newly created spacers and then adding the VA-146 Flange Bearing assembly between the two, then cleoing the assembly into the W-1029B Rib assembly as shown in figure 5 page 14-2. Steps 9 and 10 were deburing the W-1025A Flap Hinge Bracket and W-1025B Flap Hinge Rib to the W-1010-R Inboard Wing Rib as described in figure 7 and 8. Time to accomplish this for both right and left wings were about 5 hours.
