Welcome to our RV-8 build log


Date: 11-14-2009
Number of Hours: 3.00
Manual Reference: 8-77
Brief Description: Flap intersection fairings

Bent the lower part of the flap fairings by hand to fit the fuselage bottom skin. Re-checked the alignment of the ailerons and flaps and match drilled the fairings to the fuselage. We had to open the bend on the RH fairing's flange that lies on the flap so that there is enough edge distance on the top row of rivets.
