Simon,

The 5mm x .08mm tap is for tapping the lugs on the doors for the gas
strut ball joints.  This is in the manual where it explains how to fit
the gas struts.  You also need a 4.2mm drill bit to drill these holes.

The 12mm taps are required for tapping the wing lift pin holes and the
flap drive pin holes.  This is also in the manual in the relevant
section for fitting these pins.  From memory, think the drill bit needed
for this is 10.8mm.

I would advise against using the nearest (undersized) imperial size
drill bits for the wing and flap pins like I did.  The extra couple of
thou makes quite a difference.

Sorry but haven't got my manual handy to confirm page numbers.
