Like I said, still a little too close to the supports. Too much bouncing around and I'm sure some extra wear would occur.]]> danbish photo Tue, 17 Nov 2009 23:39:23 +0000 http://europaowners.org/gallery2/v/DanBish/album161/Control_Systems_5_001.jpg.html http://europaowners.org/gallery2/v/DanBish/album161/Control_Systems_5_001.jpg.html
Made a couple of supports for the cables, but they're still too close to the vertical supports for my liking so I'm going to come up with something else that'll move the a skosh out and away.]]> danbish photo Tue, 17 Nov 2009 23:39:23 +0000 http://europaowners.org/gallery2/v/DanBish/album161/Control_Systems_4_001.jpg.html http://europaowners.org/gallery2/v/DanBish/album161/Control_Systems_4_001.jpg.html
Now repositioned, this brings the cables lower so they travel through the tunnel without hitting any of the flap rod during its ups-and-downs.

NOTE - I ENDED UP PUTTING THESE BACK UP HIGH AS THE INSPECTOR FOUND THAT THE CABLES WERE CONTACTING THE BELL CRANK IN ON THE REAR BULKHEAD DUE TO THE STEEP DECLINE. PUTTING THEM BACK UP AVOIDED THIS AND I JUST PUT ON SOME LARGER DIAMETER NYLOFLO FOR IT TO RUN THROUGH (ON THE BAGGAGE BAY) AND THAT WAS ALL IT TOOK TO SATISFY THE INSPECTOR.]]> danbish photo Tue, 17 Nov 2009 23:39:23 +0000 http://europaowners.org/gallery2/v/DanBish/album161/Control_Systems_2_001.jpg.html http://europaowners.org/gallery2/v/DanBish/album161/Control_Systems_2_001.jpg.html
Here's the port side. As you can see, they were very solidly installed but, hey, anything done can usually, sorta, almost, kinda be undone.]]> danbish photo Tue, 17 Nov 2009 23:39:23 +0000 http://europaowners.org/gallery2/v/DanBish/album161/Control_Systems_1_001.jpg.html http://europaowners.org/gallery2/v/DanBish/album161/Control_Systems_1_001.jpg.html
The rudder cable support were too high (can't figure out what knucklehead did this!!) so I decided to ever-so-carefully release them from their confinement and reposition them lower down. They were causing interference with the flap rod at the height of its travel.]]> danbish photo Tue, 17 Nov 2009 23:39:23 +0000 http://europaowners.org/gallery2/v/DanBish/album161/Fuel_System_24_001.jpg.html http://europaowners.org/gallery2/v/DanBish/album161/Fuel_System_24_001.jpg.html ]]> danbish photo Tue, 17 Nov 2009 23:39:23 +0000 http://europaowners.org/gallery2/v/DanBish/album161/Fuel_System_23_001.jpg.html http://europaowners.org/gallery2/v/DanBish/album161/Fuel_System_23_001.jpg.html ]]> danbish photo Tue, 17 Nov 2009 23:39:23 +0000 http://europaowners.org/gallery2/v/DanBish/album161/IMG_2285.jpg.html http://europaowners.org/gallery2/v/DanBish/album161/IMG_2285.jpg.html
Final look at the levers, brackets, etc. that make the flaps work.

NOTE: AS YOU CAN TELL FROM THE NEXT ENTRY (AN ALBUM NOT A PHOTO), I CHOSE TO INSTALL A FLAP MOTOR INSTEAD OF THE FLAP CONTROL ROD. EASY TO DO, GIVES ME VARIABLE FLAPS, AND GETS RID OF SOME OF THE CLUTTER IN THE TUNNEL.]]> danbish photo Tue, 17 Nov 2009 23:39:23 +0000 http://europaowners.org/gallery2/v/DanBish/album161/Control_Systems_5.jpg.html http://europaowners.org/gallery2/v/DanBish/album161/Control_Systems_5.jpg.html
Both plates and levers installed, perfectly level, lined up with flaps, and flap push rod temporarily installed per the manual. Coming together nicely.]]> danbish photo Tue, 17 Nov 2009 23:39:23 +0000 http://europaowners.org/gallery2/v/DanBish/album161/Control_Systems_4.jpg.html http://europaowners.org/gallery2/v/DanBish/album161/Control_Systems_4.jpg.html
Rod end riveted into place and fork installed. This will connect to the flap acuating lever up in the cockpit.]]> danbish photo Tue, 17 Nov 2009 23:39:23 +0000
