Taking the floor out |
|
|
I need to run the pitot tube and AOA tube to the back of the aircraft. I did not plan this out as well as I should have so there was no space available for the two tubes. Plus I am fairly certain that I will need another conduit to run electrical. So after scratching my head over and over again, I finally decided the best route was to pull up the baggage compartment floor behind the pilot station. Twelve nutplates and I did not count rivets later I got the floor up and out. The final solution for the pitot / AOA tubing was to drill to separate holes in the F-705 and F-706 bulkheads. The aft spar runs through the F-705 bulkhead, so I had to make sure I was above it. The last image shows the floor from aft looking forward. I still need to run a conduit through this area and then I will put the floor back in. I thought about adding an access panel, but as everything runs in a conduit it is no longer necessary. |
