So it's winter in Wisconsin which means my unheated detached garage is even colder
than OAT! I've made room in the basement so I can do some work there over
the next few months. I'm done with the tail section and have one wing clecoed
and sitting in a stand. I'm wondering what I should work on next.
I was thinking of working on flaps but noticed the precise dimensions in the manual
for locating the flap attach brackets. Instinct tells me that while the
numbers in the manual are important, the *actual* numbers on my wing are even
more important.
Has anyone else built flaps prior to wings? If so, how well did things work out
for you? For those that built wings before flaps - did you use the flap attach
brackets from the manual or as measured from your wing?
Same questions for slats.
Maybe I should start working on the rear fuse...
Any advice would be appreciated.
Regards,
Ben

Hey there fellow Packer Fan!
I feel your pain concerning temps, its now -10F and I am going to build the rear
fuselage, instead of the wings. No room in the basement, with the new family
room that I have been Coerced into building( and my devious [Laughing] ) by
my better half. And the garage is not an option.. no heat. I think she is using
this airplane building thing :D . I remember your older post but I forget
the lesson of the build order., thanks for reminding me.

Hi Ben;
My advice regarding wings or flaps first is to make sure you
space the ribs and brackets accurately. If you do this then which parts you do
first is not important. Having said that, if you are off a little, a mm or so,
it is not a big problem. When I was building mine I tried to make the
bracket spacing as accurate as possible. I was off a little so I will add a washer
to fix the problem.
