1. Re: Tail plane Closeouts Tips?? (score: 1)
Author: Kenneth S. Whiteley <ken@kenwhit.demon.co.uk>

The tailplane closeouts were tricky layups because you have to lay up on two surfaces at right angles. What we did to make this easier was to make a pivoting jig based on the foam jig attached to ply

It is important to establish the cause of the stiffness and cure it at this stage. I set up my front bearings with a 0.01 inch shim so I expected them to be quite free. I also remanufactured these be

If you have the Tufnol bearing uninstalled, the best method is to set it up in a 4-jaw chuck in a lathe and skim it out. Before installation, my rear bearings were slightly too tight and I machined t

I am very interested in your development. I had a quick look at the existing mechanism and it looked difficult. It seems to me that one would need to change the lever ratio so as to arrive at the loc

The original bearings contained ptfe which has a very high coefficient of thermal expansion, but negligible water absorption. I think the effects you are experiencing are primarily due to the cold. P

I would say that the polyethylene fuel tank of the composite Europa is in a particularly favourable position with regard to static discharge. The hazard in refuelling a metal aircraft is that static

I don't quite agree. My fittings have been a disappointing fit since new (and haven't been flown yet). Secondly the wear will be much more rapid if there is movement. Ken Whiteley

Are we talking about the aileron torque tubes and their Tufnol bushes? I fitted grease nipples to these before installing them in the cockpit module. In the case of the forward bushes there is not en

Only if mis-handled. When one reduces flap/brake one has to apply slight back pressure on the stick to reduce pitch angle and thus increase angle of attack and maintain lift. Otherwise the aircraft a

I think that the slowness is because of the AIS's lack of installed hardware. Broadband would make no contribution. Ken Whiteley

But read the specification for its accuracy as opposed to the apparent resolution. When I looked at these they resolved to 0.1 degree but the claimed accuracy was poorer than this. Ken Whiteley

Having been at the re-enactment, I feel I must make one or two corrections. There is no remaining 1853 glider. The replica in the Elvington museum was built in 1974 at Lasham for an Anglia Television

I think it is best to avoid grinding compounds as it is very difficult to completely remove them and particles can embed in the bronze and lead to premature wear. I had the same problem and I used a
