Today I continued to work on the Service
Bulletin. I finished chamfering the
corners of the outboard gear attach brackets.
They are now ready to be installed.
I deburred the edges of the outboard doubler plates and the outboard
wear plates. Following the directions in
the SB I installed them under the mid-channel along with the drill template
above the mid-channel.
I match drilled the #30 holes in the drill
template through the mid-channel and the plates below. I removed the drill template and deburred the
holes. I reinstalled the drill template
on the other side and did the same thing.
With the template still in place I final
drilled the holes to ¼". I removed
the template, vacuumed up the drill shavings and relocated the drill template
back to the other side and final drilled the ¼" holes in that side.
