While finishing up my right wing (from a ZAC kit) I came across something interesting. The plans (6S3) show a 90 x 25 mm 1/8th inch thick piece of nylon that is riveted to the rear spar flange to act as a stop for the outboard end of the flap. Checking the parts list I could find no record of the piece and after a call to ZAC, they couldn't either. They're sending me a piece of nylon to make the part but I wondered whether others have run into the same issue. ZAC indicated I was the first to call about it.

It didn't used to be on the plans. I didn't even know about it until I saw it on a 601XL down at Corvair College.

This isn't a seal it is a stop. Just a small peice to stop metal to metal contact when the flaps are in the up position.
