| Subject: | W-919 Joint Plate question. |
--> RV9-List message posted by: Don and Shirley <don_shirley@propjock.com>
The directions call for inserting the W-919 joint plate (a 1.5 inch wide
strip of metal that joins the leading edge to the fuel tank) between the
W- 901 skin and the W-908 rib. I can understand that well enough.
Looking at plan view and comparing it with section D-D on Drawing 9 I'm
having a difficult time figuring out where to end joint plate. My best
guess is the joint plate is as long as the rib and stops just short of
the spar. When I look at the section drawing it appears that the joint
plate covers the plate nut. The plan view seems to end it short of the
spar and platenut. The plans call for the joint plate to be 36 long
which will definitely extend it well beyond the spar. If it extends to
the spar it looks likely to cause a minor bulge there.
My question for those of you who have built the wings or are still
working on them, how far did you extend the joint plate?

Don,
I stopped my W-919 before it overlaps the spar. As you indicated you would end
up with a bump if the strip ocerlaps the spar. I extended mine just far enough
to cover all of the rivet/platenut locations on the leading edge skin and fuel
tank skin without overlapping the main spar.

I too went to a little before the wing spar. Anything past the last rivet
in leading edge/bolt in fuel tank is un necessary from a structural
perspective. I think the 36" is the length of the material from which the
joint plate is to be constructed.
