Brief Description: Trace Whelen Base onto Right Wing Tip
I measured 1/4" forward from the bend in the right wing tip and used this as a reference line for the back end of the position light. I then made a rough mark for a cutout that was needed for the center tab that protrudes from the Whelen base. Normally this tab will face up when the light is installed but I decided to flip the base over to trace its outline on the wing tip. Making this small hole to accommodate the tab allowed the base to sit flat against the wing tip while inverted. I could then use the base to match drill the fiberglass tip and to trace it's outline.
Right wing tip - small initial hole cut so Whelen base can lie flat while inverted
Right wing tip - Whelen base inverted and being used as template for cutout
Right wing tip - holes drilled for Whelen position light and base traced
