My solution was to shim between the spar and each flap hinge fitting until I got the flaps to fit to my satisfaction. Once set, I did a release with flox to provide a good mounting surface for the flap fittings. Finally, I had to build out the bottom of the wing to fill the gap between the flap and the flap pocket. It was a bit of work but necessary to get a good fit. Jim Thomas Legacy - Flying --------------------------------- Looking for last minute shopping deals? Find them fast with Yahoo!
