TRUCTURE
The aileron is constructed of an aluminium spar to which a formed sheet metal
skin and metal ribs are attached. Flaps are constructed of a centre spar to which
front and rear ribs are joined; aluminium skin panels wrap-around flap structure.
Wing tips are moulded epoxy resin, fibreglass reinforced. At the inboard end of
the wing's leading edge is an integrated aluminium fuel tank with individual filler
cap.
Fuel tanks vent through tubes exhausting in the wing tip trailing edge.
