Subject: Europa-List: Slot in CM for LG retraction lever 
From: Fred Klein <fklein@orcasonline.com>



On Pg 28-1, Step 2, the manual calls for a slot in the CM 75mm and 85 
mm off the aircraft centerline for the LG retraction lever.

Having marked it as shown in Fig. 2, I note that about 8" of the port 
side edge of the retraction lever guide plate falls to port of the top 
horizontal plane of the wheel well tunnel. If I trim the port side of 
the plate as called for on Pg. 28-3 I lose quite a bit of the guide 
plate metal...this causes me some concern for both functional and 
aesthetic reasons.

Left to my own devices, I would reduce the dimensions of the slot to 
acft. centerline to 60mm and 70mm respectively.

Have any other mono-builders found this situation and how have you 
remedied it?

Comments most appreciated!

Fred

Hi Fred,

I had to add some foam to the side of the tunnel.  Take a look at
http://www.europa.net.nz/363/index.html under August 2001.
