Bill you nailed it! Fabricated another yesterday and naturally it's not quite

1934 plans don't even provide a dimension, most builders probably just eyeball
it - which probably is what you did. It looks like about an inch, relatively
speaking. Funny how both the FGM plans and the 1934 plans both provide incomplete
information for this component - but they are incomplete in different
ways.

possible scenario is that you may have done the calculations, laid out the part,
cut it, drilled it, and bent it, and when you were finished, in order to maintain
the required height, that's just the way it worked. If you were to open
up the bends to maintain 6 1/2", the height would probably be too short. And,
since you most likely already have the floor drilled, there's no point in
trying to change it now.

Tonyp51, the drawing is not on the plans because it is from the 1932-33 Flying
Manual, Page 27. The plans are not the same as the magazine but they are close.
If you look to the left at the control stick, you can see the aileron cables
come off at the same place as the elevator cables, not from a horn like the plans.
