The instructions for installing the Proprietary Software Systems AOA are OK but not enough detail to give us a good road map and a lot of confidence. Marv Kaye: You talked us through a procedure at Sun N Fun, but we did not take any notes. Would you have a longer write-up of the procedure and sequence? Anyone else have some guidance? Our concerns are: how to do as much as possible before closing out the wing and how to complete it after closing. Did anyone make an access panel in the bottom skin? If so, where? How big? What work were you able to do after closing out? Did you also make a large access hole in the outboard rib? We thought that we could make an access panel in the bottom skin and mount the tube to the top skin before closure. We would then install the lower tube on the access panel. When the panel is installed the 2 tubes would match and overlap (mate properly). Anyone done this? There is the issue of sealing the 2 tubes together. How was this done? Any and all suggestions would be appreciated. Many thanks in advance. John Schroeder & Ron Szot
