The Murphy Builders Site

Sorry about that terminology. I should have said the
stringer nearest the front of the wing. My kit is 661
and the leading edge skins are marked L or R and have
the inspection hole in them already. Chock up a
brownie point for Murphy!! I also got a reply from
Darryl and he stated there shouldn't be a gap. The gap
is 2 1/2" whereas the average in that area is 1 1/4".
I already marked it and will drill it.

Thanks,
Keith

Keith,
Not sure my reply is of much use because my kit is a
little older, 496R,
before they showed the mid-wing inspection hole. As
well, I'm not positive
what you mean by "nearest stringer to the tip".
However, on my wing skins
there were no gaps in pre-punched holes anywhere.
That includes LE skins
and main skins. The only differences are change in
pitch (rivet spacing)
and as you know, that is how you determine
left/right, inside/outside,
root/tip. I wonder if you might look at how and
where the inspection hole
doubler will tie in to the stringers. Even here
though, I used the regular
spacing of the prepunched skin holes.

I am currently installing the stringers on the

leading

edge skin. On the side that faces the bottom of

the

wing...nearest stringer to the tip....there seems

to

be a space between the predrilled holes where one

hole

appears missing. This is about 5 inches over and 5
inches in from the large inspection hole. It is
missing on both skins. Is there suppose to be a

hole

there and it was not punched at the factory? Or is
this space left unrivetted for a reason?
