Section 8

The details in this section are sketchy. The film processor lost the pictures. What is left is finishing the mouning. Mounting the spar was cleaver. Made a alignment jig and used laser beams.

Horizontal bulkhead with foam installed. Horizontal bulkhead before main gear uptravel cutouts. Main gear bushing hole. More on that later. Checking main gear uptravel. Not quite enough yet, still more cutting to do. The transverse bulkhead before trimming Checking the gear uptravel to make shure it clears the lower spar cap. Installed the main gear bushings too soon. Had to improvise a method. During the transverse bulhead layup, used jig to force glass over the bushings. Method of compliance with KPC144, attaching center spar to horizontal bulkhead. Used Aeropoxy adhesive and syrenge to inject adhesive between spar and bulkhead. Cut BID for the interior of the horizontal bulkhead. Check the BID with the template before wet out to make sure it fits. Pre-wet the lay-ups on plastic wrap before installing makes it much easier.
