Make a chamfer (this should be about 30 degrees and must be done by removing
the backing of the closing panel and the core in order to achieve the angle) on this new
edge so that there is no stress concentration in the closing lamination of the same.
Lamination a 2-ply 2-inch-wide BID tape around this section as illustrated below. Allow
healing.
Once the cover is manufactured, it is possible to glue the cavern. Its position is close
to station 126, however, make the temporary fit with the finish of the upper part of the
fuselage, position this finish with the help of the window cuts and demarcate the position
of the frame aligned with the rear edge of the finish. Prepare the cavern surfaces of station
126 as well as the internal linings of the fuselage where it will be glued (clean and roughen
the surfaces). Dig the outer core of the cave where it will make contact with the fuselage.
Prepare a MICRO paste and fill in the excavated core taking the opportunity to make a
small radius at the junctions between the anterior and posterior surfaces of the cave with
the fuselage coating. Laminate 2-ply BID tape 2 inches wide on each face of the frame
(front and back).
