Today I attached the wings onto the RV-12 airplane project and installed the wing seals per plans. The last 1/16 inch to insert the wing pins was hard with the wing seals in place!
Marked for the seal placement, it goes ~1/4 inch above the skin.
Builder's note: During this process I noticed the inboard end of the ailerons need to be trimmed (again) to insure a minimum of an 1/8 inch clearance from the fuselage skins per the acceptance checklist issued by Van's Aircraft for the RV-12. This can be done more easily if the flaperons are extended to full flaps.
This completes this entry.
