WING ROOT FAIRINGS
RV-6, RV-6A, RV-7, RV-7A
The wing root firing comes in two parts. It is jointed in the middle of the wing. All models can expect to trim the front half of the fairing to length at the location of the rear half.
The RV 6A and RV 7A require three cut-outs. Two for the step and one for the gear leg. No additional holes are required in the wing. A minimum number of screw and nut plates are required in the fuselage.
The wing root fairing you receive is designed to require very little trimming and no laminating.
The initial test flights appeared to have no change in aircraft performance. The major advantage appears to be cosmetic.
Many thanks go to Reed Usery for his support and in-put on design.
