Trailing edge root wing filler

Re: Trailing edge root wing filler

Terry,
My 41 has wood doors and frames and is a lot like what you described except there was no tape. There were strips of cotton fabric wrapped and doped in place. It was also where I found samples of unmolested paint to match colors. The 45 has tube doors and wood frames, again with sheet metal covers around the top of the frame and interior metal fairings to accent the upholstery . The 46 models I have seen uncovered have metal door frames. Don't know if they were all like that.

Hank, early 46 had wood frames and later had metal. I think the tape he was referring to was finishing tape, and in 45 would have indeed been cotton. Tom
