    I was looking at my picks of wing stiffeners and realized that I had this pic, it sounds like what your describing for a 42.5 L or 11.2gal tank?

    I just got an email from Shirley at Zenith yesterday. I had emailed as a last attempt as I was under the impression that they did not sell the raw .093 angle. It is a little pricey and it must be truck shipped because of the 10+ft length for the spars but it is available from them and you don't need that much. "Kevin, You can purchase the 3/4x3/4x.093 ext angle for $3.80 ft. If we ship in 12 foot lengths it would ship by truck freight."

    I used .125 and purchased it from the local Pacific Steel. They had it in stock and it was about $100.00 for two 25 foot lengths. That was in July of 2008.

    Yes Kevin, similar although your pic shows 2 outlets and a curved upper panel probably more capacity and advantage for fuel flow when in sustained nose down ops. Ralph -------- Ralph - CH701 / 2200a Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=223734#223734

    I know that you can use .125 stock, but I am trying to save weight due to the heavy engine I will be using. So 3-5 lbs is worth a little extra $ . do not archive Kevin -------- Mark Twain: Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn't do than by the ones you did do.

    Subject: Re: Wing stiffeners
    From: "jf3sb" <jf3sb@yahoo.com>
    Vic: I put stiffeners between the ribs on my 701 wings, but did not tie them into the front spar and rear channel. Just set their length so they went up to the edge, and started riveting them 10 mm in from the end. Came out pretty good; there was no loss of "stiffening" effect. Since the skin doesn't flex and roll very well once the stiffeners are cleco'd to it, you'll want to cleco the leading edge of the skin to the spar without the stiffeners attached, then reach underneath the skin to position the stiffeners in place. Hope that makes sense. John Flavin Olathe KS 6 years into a 2-year project. If I built any slower, I'd be taking it apart.
