Fuselage Assembly
A question, for the experienced ?
I'm ready to start assembling the fuselage for our Extended Air Camper, and
wonder if the plywood should not be glued on the bottom, left and right
side, until the interior is complete.
Controls, rudder pedals, cable pully's, rigging, etc.
Or, should I just put all the plywood on now, and fit everything afterwards.
We were going to assemble, the bottom and sides, the internal wood members,
and then put the plywood skins on last, after the skeleton framework has
dried..
What about our plans, to run a piano wire above, and dead centre of the
fuselage. To be used for a reference point for square, level and a
centreline for accuracy?
Is there a better way, or place to find more details?.
Thanks in advance
Captain Marcus
Chatham, On

| Subject: | need technical advice from the pros |
Good day
We are about to assemble the fuselage of our Air Camper.
Should we just go ahead and glue all the plywood, seat backs, braces, etc.
before we do any interior work such as pulleys, rigging.
Or is it better to leave a certain section of plywood off to do other work
first?
What is the preferred method in gluing/fastening the ribs to the spars.
Does anyone have a detailed photo, of how they fastened the ribs to the
spars?
Thank you for any advice

I held off gluing both plywood sides and the firewall until I had all
controls and seat parts installed. Thought it made assembly easier although
many glue the plywood side panels on before joining the sides.

Its been 2 years since I did my fuselage, but as I remember I nailed the
bottom on the fuselage while it was still in the jig, after I glued the
tail post together. This really stiffens up the whole structure. I
suppose you could wait to nail the side pieces on, but the fuselage is
only 24 inches deep and reaching down to install the fittings wasn't a
problem for me. I just used a chalk line snapped on my building table as
a centerline reference and had the table as level as I could get them
prior to joining the fuselage sides. I was a lot better at taking
pictures back then, and you may want to look at some of them at:
http://www.mykitplane.com/Planes/buildLogReport.cfm?PlaneID=481&FName=Ben&LName=Charvet&PlaneName=Air%20Camper
Scroll down to May-Sept 2005 and there are a few pictures of my
fuselage. I did wait until the seats were installed before nailing on
the plywood sides. Don't forget the inner plywood sheeting that goes on
the upper forward part of the fuselage between the firewall and the
forward cabane struts (I forgot and had to add it later)
Welcome to the list. You will find lots of good advice from others that
have already faced the same questions, and many varying ways folks have
solved the problems. Solving all these problems is part of the fun!
