I am ready to mate the center section to the fuselage. Is there a written procedure in one of the service letters that covers this. Any cautions or suggestions!!! Thanks Everett |

Bob and I mauled this over two ROUQUE DEAD MAN beers and came to the conclusion you did not give enough information as to where you are in the project. We took the 601 center section before it was installed in the fuselage and marked center, mate it up to the main spar which should have a center line marked. We punched ours. Lining up center lines and using two 1/4" thick flat plates across the top ,clamp the two together which will level the two. Drill your attach fitting holes in both wing spar web and 601. Using the spar bolts to hold the fittings in place drill and rivet. Bob suggested that you remove the front floorboard to access the 601 if it's installed. |

A good sharp dill bit should do just fine. |

Should have provided more info. on the origional post. My rear spar attachment points have the pilot holes drilled. I want to verify the alignment and angle of incident. newsletters suggest angle of incident boards parallel to the fuselage and check incident per plans. Was looking for best location to place level on fuselauge? Newsetter wants wings parellel to chord line, and what should the angle of incident be set at. thnaks, Everett |
