| Subject: | F-1046 Longeron to F-1005E Gusset Holes |
I lined up the F-1046L longeron with the gusset as described on page 29-9,
with the longeron flush with the skin. Then, I drilled the holes. The edge
distance is terrible, but I can't see what I did wrong. I've searched and
found others with the same problem, but no resolutions turn up. The diagram
on 29-9 sure acts like these holes will wind up in the middle of the
longeron, but I don't see how.
Waiting to drill the other side until I can figure out how to avoid the
same problem. Looks to me like I should replace the longeron, but I don't
know how to do it any differently and still have the longeron flush with
the skin.

Any suggestions?

I don't think you need to rebuild the longeron. Give Vans a call tomorrow a
nd send them the photos too. I believe they have developed a repair for th
is. IIRC, it involves a gusset. But give them a shout and I'm pretty su
re they'll be able to take care of you.
At least you noticed it now. Some folks have built on and had to correct i
t later after the tail is assembled. Only to have to tear it back apart to f
ix it.
