I got the idea to use PVC  from other builders.  It's easy to push wires through PVC.   

  

 Here's where I cut the  hole.

 The location works out  great as it will put the PVC just below the aft edge of the wing access  panels.  The access panel is not obstructed, and the  conduit is right there to pluck wires from for pitot or autopilot.   

 Here's a shot of the  PVC in the wing.

 other  notes:

 - I put the conduit in  place before riveting the skins and it posed no added measure of difficulty  while riveting.

 - I put some blue RTV at  all the PVC+Rib intersections to avoid any potential vibration or movement  issues.

             Subject:      PVC-tube in the    wings?

       

      Hi  builders!

      

       Thanks for the inputs on the flap hinge! I'll go for the split-pin metod  then!

      

       Another one: 

      I'm thinking towards intstalling  wires in the wings also, and saw a builder on

       the net who'd installed a small PVC-tube in the  wings.

      It made room for several wires (landing  light, posn light, antenna etc)

       

      Anyone else have done  this?

      It seems to me like a good  idea??

      Specially if I also put a light line in  there so I can replace or add thing later.

       

      Thoughts  anyone??

      

       Best regards Alf Olav Frog /  Norway
