RE: Europa-List: Re: Advise wanted: route new wire bundle through tunnel

[Bud Yerly <budyerly@msn.com>]

Marcel,

I did not put an access from below, to access the baggage bay.  I put the a
ccess hole in the floor between the panels, so I can access the flap drive,
 and any wire bundles I need to run through the tunnel.  I can use a large 
mirror to see and inspect well forward.


Under the fuel tank I have the stock access holes.  All my customers have t
he elongated hole for access.  Between that fuel access hole, the one in th
e baggage bay floor, the aft end between the seats from on top, and finally
 the large hole in my center tunnel makes the plane quite enjoyable to insp
ect and service.


There is nothing wrong with opening up the hump in the tunnel aft of the Mo
d 52 bar if you need to gain access.  Just glass it back up or put in a fla
nge and restore the structure for your trigear frames.  I elected to simply
 put the hole (six inch hole with a =BD inch flange allowing 5 inches of ro
und hole to see in there) in the floor and it allows easy access to my flap
 drive.  I also made a large hole through the vertical support on the inboa
rd port vertical support also to allow service.

See drawing of my typical baggage bay.

If I can put an access hole somewhere to allow maintenance and retain struc
ture, I do it.

Bud Yerly

Hi Bud,

The setups in your photos is pretty much what I have, I was assuming you we
re referring to having a large access panel under the baggage bay / landing
 gear fixing area area. Probably I assumed this because the hard part is ge
tting from appr. the "D" to that large panel between the seats. As most of 
the times, my assumption has proven to be the mother of.... (well, you know
 what ;) )

Though not quite done thinking yet, I guess putting a (snakeskin?) sleeve a
round the bundle prior to working it through the tunnel will simplify the j
ob and reduce the risk of damaging whatever is already there...

I will do as you say, next time at the airport I will start doing it.

As always, your advise is much appreciated!
