| Subject: | Need a RV6/A wing measurement |
I am getting ready to paint the wings on my RV-6A. I have not installed the
wing / fuselage intersection fairing yet (wing is not on the plane). Can
someone out there with a finished 6/6A give me a measurement from the
fuselage to the end of the wing, not including the wingtip? I am laying out
a pattern on paper for scallops and want to get it as close as I can.
Thanks

I can measure it for you Don. At what point on the wing would you like the
measurement? Leading edge? Spar?

There's not a single measurement. The fuselage side is not parallel to the
inboard rib of the wing due to dihedral and curvature of the fuselage. The
closest point (shortest length) is at the top of the main spar. I am not
sure how your scheme is planned but it might be better to assemble the plane
and do your layout then. Besides, the work of fabricating the fairings is
going to 1) ruin any paint nearby and 2) require you remove the wings again
anyway to put in nutplates.
