 Posted: Sun Aug 27, 2006 2:23 pm Post subject: Rudder cable fairings |
 |
|
I am in the middle of riveting the tailcone and wondering if anyone fitted
the rudder cable fairings (from avery) at this time? Thought it would be a
ton easier w/o the back deck in place. How are people attaching them? Also
how far forward or back from the center of the hole do you have to install
them to leave adequate room for the cable? I was planning to rivet and
proseal them in place covering all but the last 1/3 of the hole or so.
Anyone got any pictures or web links covering the installation? I know they
are probably pretty simple but I thought I would ask.

My recommendation would be to wait until you've got the cable. If you
don't leave enough room to get the ends of the cable through, then
you'll end up taking it back off to run the cable.

i actually didn't like the way they looked if you put them far enough forward to be able to remove the rudder cable, and i also didn't like the idea of not being able to remove the rudder cable, so i put in 3 nutplates, and i positioned the fairing so that it captures the rudder cable sleeve nice and snug. also, if you do it before you put the skin on the tailcone you'll be happier. Much easier.
here's a link to mine...

Hey ben -
I didn't see a response to your query, and I tried to post yesterday and
I don't think it went through. I actually put k1100 nutplates and
screws to hold the fairings, because I wanted them to really cover the
opening, but if you do it that way, the cable is captured in there, and
non-removeable (read serviceable). I stuck the rudder cable sleeve in
there to position the fairing, then marked it and put the nutplates. I
have a pic of it on this page...

Also, I did it before I riveted the skin on the tailcone. I think it
would be a pain to do after.
