Subject: RV7-List: Drawing inconsistencies in Midsection of RV7


Charlie,
I agree with you on the wiki idea. I've come across similar problems over  
the past 4 years of building very slowly.  One thing that really bugs me is  
that my manual says to cut a 1-5/8 hole in the F725 for the step (I'm building
a  
7A) and the drawing shows a 1-1/2" hole.  The step tube is 1-1/2".  It  also 
shows that the F623 needs to be cut to avoid interference. But no  indication 
of what orientation the steps will have at that point?  The  fuselage curves 
back right at that point where the step seems to attach.

In addition, F767 has no hole sizes.  I called Vans and they said the  
drawing was to scale so that was the size of the holes!
