on construction that might be of interest to new and tosome long time builders

Best of all you can download it for FREE off of their website.

Jim-- I would think if you could just talk with the builder of your plane y
ou'd be better off in the long run.
If you're on FB you could message him here: https://www.facebook.com/#!/mic
hael.brusilow?fref=ts
(he's even got photos of your plane on there when it had a Model A Ford eng
ine.)
He's in his 90's....retired OBGYN.
Perhaps he can give you his e-mail and or phone so you can hear about your
plane directly from the builder
without searching anywhere else.

| Subject: | Aileron control cable routing |
Gentlemen and Oscar, I am looking at where the aileron cables were on my
plane. They were routed from the horns on the stick, crossing each other to
a pulley mounted on the sdiewalls. Then they are routed straight up behind
the instrument panel and to the wing root.
The plans are not clear and photos I have seen don't seem to have this
feature. They look like they simply cross each other and go straight up
through the back side of the instrument panel.
Opinions?
Blue Skies,
Steve D.

Steve
Mine go from the horns on the control stick directly to a pulley on the
rear spar (crossing just below the instrument panel). Sounds like you have
an extra set of pulleys between the stick and spar.

There IS a reason for the datum to be forward of the aircraft. This is particularly
true for transport category. Most are swept wing so leading edge of the
wing is meaningless. Same with other commonly used GA ones like firewall, prop
flange and so on. Since location of the datum is completely arbitrary, most
big aircraft use a point in front of the plane. That way, all of the arms are
positive and the math is slightly simpler when changing things like radomes
that might be forward of, say, a front bulkhead datum.
FWIW, the original Piper factory paperwork for our J-3 shows TWO datums -- the
leading edge of the wing and the prop flange, though most people use the leading
edge.
