Wing Root Seals

Wing Root Seals

Postby Mark Anderson » Wed Feb 12, 2014 11:28 pm

Before I departed KFTW the other day I noticed the rubber strip on the under side of the right wing hanging down about 3 feet. It was cold, windy and raining so I just cut the rubber off with a pocket knife to avoid beating up the plane in flight. Where can I purchase this seal? Should I use a contact cement to hold it on? Remove the metal strip?

Thanks

Mark

Webco has it. I was told you don't need any cement, but I didn't have any luck so I used some cement as did the guy before me.

Mark,

Use the cement sparingly.
