Trim the seat backs for aileron cable clearance
It will be necessary to trim a section of the seat back out in order to provide clearance for the
aileron cables – cut the hatched area shown in the left-hand photo below: cut just far enough
to remove the curved lip from the side of the seat back, about 10mm.
A jigsaw is ideal for the task. Sand off any rough edges.
Drill the aileron cable bracket rivet holes
Working from the rear of the seats, hold each bracket against the seat back so that the outside
and bottom of the bracket is in line with the marks on the front of the seat back – you will be
able to see the marks through the seat back. Hold the bracket firmly and drill the bottom
outside hole through the seat back.
Place a rivet from the front of the seat into the bracket to position it, check that the bracket is
still lined up with the marks and drill the inside top hole.
Place another rivet into the inside top hole and drill the outside
top hole.
Make sure that all the rivets fit snugly through the seat back
and into each bracket, then remove all the rivets and clean all
the holes carefully – there must be no burrs or rough edges
remaining.
