Brief Description: Cutting Skin for Showplanes MOD
I unclecoed everything so I coud cut the Skin at a 5 degree angle for the show planes Mod. Was pretty straight forward. Drew out my lines and then cut them with my snips and used a file to get to the line followed up with the scotchbrite wheel on the die grinder. I then clecoed everything back together and.........Had a heck of a time getting the lower nose rib in!!!!!! what the heck. I called show planes and they said to bend the rear flange and use the Fluting pliere on the nose of the rib. Seems to have worked pretty well.
5 degree cut
Rib is in!! ready to reverse match drill with angle drill
All the nose rib holes are drilled. So far so good the First mod of the plane.
