petepeek | A Few questions
Hi Guys
Have been a Machinist/tin Pecker/Pilot since the 60's, Glad we have a Late Kit, Guys had their hands full with an early Kit of pieces, WOW... Have most of the Kit # 127, and have a few questions that are mechanical and desire to check with guys that can answer from experience what instruction books don't or can't..........
Home inboard fuel strainers, when go to install, on Kit # 127, the screen portion runs into the sloped bottom inside the tank, have ya shortened them ?, Modified?, Replaced?, eliminated?, did they mount the ports too low or were they just engineers that were not Mechanics/Builders???
The Hangar Where can we buy more composite sheet/Panel like all the parts are made of ??? for console, additional gussets at rear of canopy to floor and just to have for use...
#3 All of the Aileron and Flap brackets that mount on the rear spar of the wings mount to the OUTSIDE or their respective Ribs, CORRECT ???
looks like, seems like in pictures, see broken lines in manual but not found in verbage of instructions, measure 2 or 3 times, Ask the silly questions before trimming, cutting anything..
Blogs Like we said we have most of the Parts to the Kit, the rest are coming, but are there any loose parts out there from broken, partial, damaged kits, any origional parts where other parts were used in place of origional or any that were completed, Dismantled or had mishaps????
Never itched like this, Tin Pecking
Thank You Very Much Gentlemen
Have our Cardinal all rebuilt, done and Flying, but This will Be Really COOL
