6.2 Fitting the rear fuselage fairings
a) Prepare the fuselage longerons by covering the outside edges where the
fairings will touch with clear tape
– clear packaging tape is enough and will
help prevent any damage from slight movement and abrasion in service. Also
smooth and small lumps or sharp shards from the inside of the corners of the
fairings with 80 grit or similar sandpaper.
b) It is very important the following sequence for fitting is followed otherwise the
fairings can be damaged:
Fit the starboard (right) fairing first. Fit at an angle so that the lower
edge is put in position first. Make sure the bolt from the central bracing
frame fits in the hole in the fairing.
Then rotate so the upper edge ‘clips’ over the upper fuselage longeron.
Fit the portside in the same manner taking care to overlap the starboard
fairing on the joins.
