  • Leading Edge

    Any one know the lengths of the leading edge on a bc12d? One of my wing has two pieces the other has five! Any help would be appreciated. George

        The wing we have here is done in 3 plus the tip. From root to tip 64 1/4, 57 1/2, and 54 1/2. There is about 1 inch overlap at the seams. Tom

              George,

              The following measurements are with tape hooked on wing root rib and to the center of a 1" overlap. I can't verify originality on either wing.

              13rib wing: 59 3/4", 91 1/2", 156", 180" (4pc leading edge + wing tip)

              15rib wing: 52 1/2", 111", 173 1/2" (3pc leading edge + wing tip)
