Lunch has now turned into dinner.. there was a brief hiatus in the weather where
the sun came out and a bunch of bananas were lopped from the tree and many hands
cut off; of bananas, not apes...
So just for entertainment and curiosity the fence concept was extended further
to a more aft limit.. that worked favourably; so the concept was developed into
a rib extending to around 1m short of the stern. And that appears to also work
favourably toward keeping air flowing neatly and quietly downstream to the
undercarriage. A secondary affect if shaped with foam and glassed over would be
added rigidity of the belly skin and less tendency for panel drumming.
Peter the fence is just a 3.00mm piece of flat plate running from the lower
engine
cowl side face rearward; a block of triangular shaped foam glued to the skin
would also work for a temporary trial... ending it just forward of the fuel
drain vents will function well; the fence height used in tests is 64.0mm.
