Gentle Lady Build Instructions - WIng
Posted: Wed Mar 10, 2021 10:59 pm
I've been building the wings for my Gentle Lady 250 and have come across a section that needs editing.
The details for exact placement of sheeting and sheer webbing isn't clear.
I installed the sheeting flush with rib #2 and the overhang towards the joint of the center panels. I cut off the excess and proceeded. I later learned, as i was trying to determine the placement of the sheer webbing, that the sheeting is supposed to be flush with rib #1 and overhang between ribs #2 and #3. The sheer webbing then goes in bays 2-7. Starting with the notched webbing piece going in the first slot and the notches being there to accommodate the overhang of the sheeting.
The wing instructions (at least the ones I downloaded. don't think its been updated since then) are not clear in the above details.
I'll be sure to clearly describe these details in my build log for future reference, but I think the instructions need to be updated.
Keep up the good work!
