Hi All,
It seems that spring is finally on its way, and to celebrate I am
planning a little trip around the central/south. I hope to make
Wolverhampton for coffee [ 1100ish, voucher in Pilot ], Kemble for
lunch [1300ish, Mad Hatters fly-in, free landings for all] and Popham
for tea [1500ish, voucher in Flyer]. Hope to see a few folks along the
way !.
Cheers
Paddy Clarke

Hi Graham,
This is a Eudora gimmick, which i haven't seen in other email programs but for
Opera mail. It is a nice property. Apart from that it's probably best not to copy
anything from the message you reply to in your answer as a standard, exactly
to keep the load on the forum as small as possible. What has been said before
in a thread is visible for everybody anyhow.
Regards, and thnks again for the great help,
Jos Okhuijsen

Tomorrow, I hope to start rigging the wings of my kit but I can't understand
how the method described in the manual achieves the required results.
In the overview of the relevant chapter (27) it says:
<quote>Take care when setting the angle of incidence, especially that both
wings are set exactly the same. Any small angular difference between them
will result in an aircraft that always wants to roll one way, requiring a
roll trim tab permanently attached to one of the ailerons.
In step 2 of the same chapter it says:
<quote>Set the wings up so the spars are within the fuselage but not quite
engaged in the spar sockets.
It then goes on to say that the wings must be arranged very precisely with
the waterline of the fuselage. I can't understand how, if the wings are not
engaged in the spar sockets, this precision can be achieved.
I'm clearly missing something important here so advice about this will be
gratefully received!

Hi Simon,
While not tomorrow, wing rigging is just around the corner for me too, so i have
been reading the same literature. I guess that you should not yet fully engage
the spar sockets because you will need the room to mark the spot where to drill
the hole for the lift pin. Only later, at the time the wing root pin sockets
are to be attached, full precision is to be achieved. To get both wings to
the same angle i will put a laser on top of the template, and measure the point
on a wall a few meters away to be level. That should give the precision asked
for. But i gladly change my opinion for a better one,
Regards,
Jos Okhuijsen

Simon,
It's a while I've done this job and I don't have the manual handy, so I cant answer
the question you asked but want to give a tip.
Don't do as I've seen so many talk about on this forum, using the digital inclinometer!
It does not offer a resolution high enough for the job.
I won't bother calculating this but just remember that 0.1 of a degree corresponds
to quite a distance when you talk of the length of the chord.
The simplest way to do it is to use a 1/4 inch clear flextube with water and a
drop of detergent and set up reliable reference points on leading and trailing
edges.
That will give you peace of mind when it comes to the day of the testflight...
If you do it alone it can still be done, taping the tube but it is a drawn out
story to get it right.
After I did the job I saw advertised somewhere an automatic water level thingie
that beeps when the level reaches the desired point and thought it would be handy
for a lot of jobs....
Alex, kit 529- as far as I remember...haven't touched the beast for two years now....darn
