--> RV7-List message posted by: "Hinde, Frank George (Corvallis)" <frank.hinde@hp.com>
Hi all,
I'm a little confused over the seat back hinge placement. The pans say
to have an overall hinge length of 15.5 inches where the seat back is 16
inches. Naturally I cut 15.5 inches and centered it on the seat back.
Didn't look quite right so I looked harder and it appears the really
there should be 16" of hinge, with the closed end on the inboard side.
The inboard edge of the seat back should be right on the edge of the
tunnel cover flange.
Does that sound right to you guys?
It would be better if Van's gave a dimension relating the seat back
positon to the airframe.
Thanks
Frank

Frank,
I'm working on the seat backs too.
The drawing can be a bit confusing:
On drawing 30, bottom-center, note "F-637 Seat Back Assembly". To the
left, in area A-7.5, note the side view at bottom: "F-637E Make from
AN257-P3 Hinge 16" long".
Then, note the front view in area A-6, shows a dimension of 15 1/2"
Total Hinge Length. You can see that the dimension is actually from the
end of the hinge eye on one end to the end of the hinge eye on the other
end.
Bad wording in my opinion.

Yes I understand it now Sam thanks...I just saw a picture from a
builders website...It is as you say...closed end flush with one end
(inside) and that closed end "overhangs" the hinge on the floor to the
inboard side.
Phew...:)
Thanks
