My resurrection of the John Starr T-18 project (SN 104?) has taken on new life since I'm just hanging around the house these days. Does anyone know off hand what drawing shows the location of the exit slot on the aft fuselage for the rudder cables. Also need the location of the holes in the bulkhead just forward. Thanks in advance.

I looked at DWG 518 but was not confident in determining the stations for the exit slots. If you made me pick, I would say the exit slot begins at STA 194.25 and extends to STA 199.00, with a slot width of 0.25" in the skin.

Same DWG shows bulkhead 575 slot dimensions of BL 3.00 to BL 3.75 at WL 33.99

Hope that is some help.
