i) Now fit the lower door frame together.
Start with fixing the top tube to the hinge by drilling and fixing with a
cleco/ skinpin. Ensure that the tube is correctly orientated with bend
outwards and not rotated upwards or downwards.
Next with the door frame taped in the closed position,drill and rivet the
rear gusset plate into position. Allow room to fit the catch, and but up
against the catch plate later later
– see Fig 262 above and Fig 272
later. Use 4mm aluminium rivets. Make sure the doorframes are not
allowed to twist during this operation
j) Un-tape and check correct fit and opening and closing.
Some adjustment by carefully bending the tubes may be required.
Leave the clecos in position holding the tubes to the hinge for now.
They are not riveted to the hinge until the lexan is fitted.
18.3.2 Upper door frames
a) The door is hinged with twp short lengths of aluminium hinge. These are
attached to a 20x20mm piece of aluminium angle. This angle has its upper
horizontal edge facing outwards, at the same level as the wing undersurface
Figure 296 upper door
b) Offer up the 20x20 angle and align its top edge level with the wing
undersurface. Mark the position of the tube centres for TU34 and TU 6, then
drill the centre of the angle in these positions
– 4mm diameter in TU34 and
5mm in TU6.
c) Offer it up again, mark and drill the TU34 and TU6 to match, and temporarily
fix into position and verify fit, then remove.
d) Attach the hinges.
