S.5.B Fuselage Gear Fairings
The fuselage gear fairing is fitted and later screwed to the
fuselage. The gear leg fairing and the wheel pant must be
in place on the main gear before the fuselage gear fairing
can be fitted.
Steps...
1. Fit the fuselage gear fairing by aligning it with the gear
leg fairings.
The gear leg fairing should fit inside the fuselage
fairing.
2. Trim the fuselage gear fairing piece as necessary in
order to fit snugly against the bottom of the fuselage.
3. Drill holes and install -8 nutplates approximately every
3" (75 mm) in the wing core.
Or you may bond the nutplates in place using bondable
nutplates or something similar to the detail in the
figure below.
Nutplates can be riveted to BID strips of e-glass
approximately 1.0” by 1.5” (25 mm by 38 mm).
