| Subject: | Drill a hole in the spar |
I have a question related to the attached picture. I would like to run some
wires and pitot lines from in front of the spar to behind the spar. What do
you think about drilling a hole where I put the arrow, putting in a grommet,
and running the stuff through?

Generally, I would say no to drilling in that region. Your best bet would b
e to come through a lightening hole further out and come through the ribs af
t of the fuel tank.
Best bet would be to ask Caleb at the factory.

I have not built my wings yet but would agree with Doug. Any extra holes
will weaken the spar. This look close to the wing attachment point. I would
keep as much of the integrity here as possible.
