Brief Description: Result Wd-716 aft edge flange adjustment.
As a result of removing a bit of material from the Wd-716 upper flange, aft edge we now have a flange that is 90 degrees as specified by the plans. The Canopy skin will now fit nice and flush on the flange. I have not seen any other builder log mention or deal with this? The plans do on page 9-4.
“When the forward ribs of the Wd-716 canopy frame assembly are manufactured, the flanges do not form to the necessary 90 degrees. Use a file or belt sander to remove some material on the aft edge of the upper flange so it is 90 degrees when checked with a square.”
See the previous post to see how I adjusted this flange.
