Cleco’ed on the left side skin in prep for match drilling.
Cut these little gussets apart.
Dimpled these holes. Big one is for a #8 screw. Small one for a nut plat mount rivet.
Side skin cleco’ed on and ready for match drilling.
The aft end of the longerons bend down at the factory bend location on the aft end. No way the angle will give enough to allow the skin to align with the vertex without undue stress and twisting of the skin.
The VAF brain trust states that Van’s support directs to just drill it per the skin and do not try and straighten the angle or pull the skin down to align.
Scott McDaniel agreed and I trust him 100% to know what he is talking about.
