Rib Stitch Spacing

[NC22211]

Question for the experienced:

I read a Taylorcraft data sheet somewhere a while back which listed the wing rib stitch intervals, including the necessary offsets to avoid intefering with the aileron cables. It also listed the tail rib stitch spacing. Despite my searches, I can't locate this reference. anyone have it available or know where to find it? We're at that point now. Thanks! Bob

Hey Howard, for some reason I only just today discovered your great postings on the photo gallery. Great stuff, valuable stuff, I spent 2 hours this evening looking at everything. Thank you.

One question (off the topic of this thread, sorry): What's that slot for on your bungee covers? My bungee covers don't have that. Do I need a slot?

Re: Rib Stitch Spacing

Hi Bob, Glad you enjoyed that! I should put some more stuff up there when I get the chance.

The slots were in the bungee covers when I got them. My guess is, that someone figured that the safety cables were awkward all tucked up around the bungees so pulled them through the slots to get them out of the way???

Every once in a while I'll see a T-craft with the cables sticking out from around the fairings......
