    Thanks Craig, By looking at the drawings, it would seem that structurally it shouldn't matter which way they face. But the drawings DO specify which way they should go. I did call Zenair, but about something else. That was 3 weeks ago and still no reply. It is the holidays however and they ran and grabbed a -640 specialist to answer my questions. I didn't ask about the flaps because I hadn't realized the problem at that point. I am ready to install the ribs into the right flap. Everything is pretty straightforward. I'm just being cautious about the hinges. I'm not happy with the way they ended up on the stabilator trim tabs. I want these to be better, but don't yet have a good method for doing it. -------- Mark s/n 094 Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=325494#325494

    I think I had a similar problem with my trim tabs. I put in the specified shim, (actually mine was just a tad thicker) between hinge and tab skin. But the travel on the tab side seemed a bit cramped, due to the spring back of the tab skin. -------- Craig Smith CH640 builder SN: 0078 &quot;Just think how stupid the average person is, and then realize that half of them are even stupider!&quot; --George Carlin Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=325495#325495
