Group,
Can anyone come up with a compelling reason NOT to attach the Fairings to
the Fuselage as apposed to the wings as stated in the Build manual.
These are the premoulded Fairings as supplied from Europa.
For:-
Think it would look better with the Fairings filled and blended into the
fuselage sides.
The mouldings are a much neater fit around the wings and would not need gaps
filled with Silicone as suggested in the build manual when the moulding are
attached to the wings.
The lip of the moulding around the wings can be blended to the wing with
filler.
Against:-
I can see it would be more awkward to fit the wings, especially the last bit
getting the wings into the moulding which in effect would be sockets.At its
home field the aircraft will be live in its own hanger, so putting the wings
on an off hopefully won't be a regular occurance.
A little harder for maintenance etc of the flight controls within the
fuselage.
This aircraft is a classic, with the MAUW mod installed.
Kind Regards
