Hi Group
Anyone have any idea why both of my FL-16 Flap Hinge Arms have a hole on the square end?:

Thx.

Hi Ron,
Not the right place for a hole to connect to the flap cross tube. Nope, no idea why that hole is there. If it were me, I'd just ignore it. You are free to do as you will.

Ron...reading on p.9 of chap. 28M:
| Quote: | Step 14
Attach the hinge arms FL16 to the brackets FL18 then swing them up to engage between the two pairs of lugs that are welded to the cross-tube, rotating the tube so that the lugs and the hinge arms are in line. Clamp the lugs and hinge arms together then, using the two small diameter holes in each lug as a centre, drill right through with a 4.8 mm drill. Insert an AN3-5A bolt in each hole and reposition the clamp if necessary before drilling the second hole then, placing on an AN960-10L washer, tighten each bolt up with an MS21042-3 nut and remove the clamps. The flaps will now extend and retract together and only require linking to the landing gear retraction mechanism.

Manual indicates you should have 2 small holes...not 1...what size is your hole?
I don't recall if my FL 16s had one or two holes...

OOPS...misread the manual...the "two small holes" are in the lugs, not in the FL 16s...in truth, I don't recall my FL 16s having ANY holes...
