Cut hole in fuse floor for the flap control rod. Checked right flap control rod fitment.


This is the view looking DOWN on the flap, showing the gap between the fuse and flap. This must be increased to ensure the flap does not rub against the fuse - including paint when applied!
The finish strip between fuse and wing. I need to check this now and drill the holes for the screws so the nutplates can be fitted when the wing is off.
This strip needs to have enough gap for the rubber finish strip against fuse side.
Here you can see where the flap is touching the side of the fuse.
