Hi all, I've started working on installing the firgelli flap motor in 218TH. For those that have done this - what size material did you use for a back plate for the flap motor attach on the aft spar carry through?
I know it would be good to spread the load, but now that the area is finished - putting anything "too" big might prove interesting.
Ideas?
