Hi George,
I have the same problem as I am repairing a crash damaged Europa. I have
tailplanes
---From a Classic Europa and a new XS fuselage and torque tube.
To cut a long story short, the XS torque tubes and bushes are ground to a
tolerance
specified by a drawing whereas the Classic tubes and bushes were ground down
to match each other but not necessarily to a known size.
I need to do exactly what you are proposing which is to extract the old bushes
and replace them with new ones that came with my XS torque tube.
Neville Eyre was going to write a procedure for me a few months ago but he never
got round to doing this and I never got round to chasing him up. I suggest
we both contact him and ask nicely if he can write this procedure up. He tells
me it is quite easy to do although will require cutting into the lower surface
of the tailplanes.
Regards,
Phil
