After installing the spar box, I noticed that in section 24. Master Cylinder Installation, it says:   

22. In the bottom of the rear spar box measure forward from the main gear leg socket 5/8”, and in line with the socket. You should measure from the edge of the hole not the weld.  

23. Drill a 1/2” hole here. Start with smaller bit and work you way up, this will be more accurate.   

I would have preferred to do this before I fitted the spar box, but now I will do it in place. Access may be a liitle difficult but I think a drill extension may be the solution.

Way to keep things going Colin!  Keep it up!  

   

I hope you don’t mind that I put a link to your KitLog site under http://www.jimslightning.com/html/cool_links.html  

   

I am trying to fill that page with builder information as I go.  

   

Jim!
