Mark, Do you have the same travel down on your flaps on both sides, left
and right?

Yes, 40.7 on the right, and 40.5 degrees max on the left. The chart says "40-45
degrees" so I'm right in there.

After several months of minimal building activity, & a year or more
since building the fuselage, I'm gearing up to install the tipup rear
window & aft top skin.
I haven't dimpled the skin yet, so I pulled out the small version of
drawing 40 to see how to dimple/countersink the area where the skin sits
on the F706 bulkhead & F732A brace. Detail G, and other drawings on the
page, show an angle brace, F732B. The actual piece I made a year or more
ago is a piece of flat 1/8" aluminum. After digging through the
instructions for a half-hour or so trying to find the directions for
building the part, I pulled out the full size drawing to see details a
bit better. Hmmm... *That* drawing detail G shows a flat piece of metal,
F732H. The two drawings have the same rev# & date.
I'm hoping that the 'H' means I'm good to go, but has anyone talked to
Van's about this?
Thanks,
Charlie
