wing inter bracing tension.

Re: wing inter bracing tension.

I think you raise the outboard trailing edge for washout.

What are the steps to put washout into the wing and how much is required?

Sorry, forgot to search before asking the question! I found that it is accomplished by using the adjuster on the end of the wing strut.

Bob Gustavson has a nice blog about his Tcraft restoration where he detailed out the process of assembling his wing and trammeling it. I recommend you check it out.

Dont forget to make sure that when the outboard trailing edge is lowered that the wires dont touch. Tim

Re: wing inter bracing tension.

I did the same as Larry, used sound. I tightened them until they were about 90% as tight as I thought I could get them, then just focused on making them all about the same.

We tightened ours to sound. Got them snug then plucked them like a giutar string. But am waiting for smarter people then me to enlighten. L

Can someone tell me how snug we want the adjustable inter bracing wires in the wing?

Anything special a fellow should know about setting them?

Thanks...
