Rebuild access panel for AHRS |
|
|
While working in the fuselage yesterday I rested my knee by accident on the access panel for the AHRS and the result is in Image 1. This showed me that the panel needed some stiffening; in use it is not likely to get a concentrated load like that but doing maintenance tasks might lead to a similar situation. So I took some J-stringer and fabricated a new pane with stiffeners. After dimpling and riveting all the new parts, the result looks like the prior panel but it now takes my weight easily. Rivet count: 22 (5 redo, 535 total redone) Total: 17118 - Plus 549 done at Van's |
