--> L29-List message posted by: "Brian Colombo" <bcolombo@twcny.rr.com>
ok on my newly acquired l-29 the leading edge of one of the wings was rubbing on
the trailer someplace. After about a week on the ramp in upstate ny a faa guy
looked it over and said the damage had to be repaired before it could be flown.
the damaged spot is about the size of a quarter and if you laid a flat edge
over it, it would appear to be about 1/16th or a little less. of an inch deep.
I cant tell if it was pushed in a little also or it it was actually that worn
away. Where do I find out what is acceptable and what has to be fixed. The
faa guy said if I could show him something that said what damage was within limits
I did not have to mess with it but where the heck would I find that. The
biggest issue is the plane is stripped so its not like I can use filler and re-paint
the spot. Any suggestions, Ideas. etc. thanks Brian
