For those of you who have had the same issues, I have found that i cant get the port side pin to install. The hole/bush in the CM is about 3 - 4mm too high so i have to move it. Question is do I move just to port side bush,
or both to keep things even. My feeling is to move both so they can be
reduxed in-situ and give me a very easy rigging, and also ensure that
the wings are even with regard to elevators. The starboard bolt can be
installed by hand in the port spar but is tight through the rear starboard wing spar. The wings measure at 4.6 degrees of dihedral on both with the
starboard pin installed

Craig

Be careful about the location of the pins, regarding their level.

I believe the holes for the wing pins on Kit 327 in the cockpit seatback are
highter than they should be. Mine are.at 190mm below a line at the level of
the top of the seatback - that is, down from the level at the base of the
headrests.

Like yours mine measure at 190mm, so based on that I would be curious to
know
what it "should" be, I could get the pin in on the port side if I sanded the
top of the spar
where it sits in the alloy "U" shaped bracket, or i could also remove the
glass from the bracket
and open it up slightly to allow the spar to rise enough to allow the pin to
insert.
Question is how much load do these brackets actually take.
