Hi everyone, We have started the recover of the Ercoupe wings. There were a few suprises when we opened them up including a hidden animal nest forward of the spar by the tip resulting in severe corrosoin to the outer spar and ribs and an outer spar on the left wing that had been hammered straight after an impact with something. $1300 at Univair later we are Cleco'd and we are epoxy priming teh structure, almost ready for fabric.
The question comes with the attaching of the fabric at the aileron bay. Other than the normal glue joints and seams called out in the manuals, there is some form of stitching along the top and bottom of the bay. I have not been able to locate any information on how this is supposed to be done. I am still trying to find our service manual but was wondering if anyone had some insight as to how this is supposed to be done. Univair was not able to give any information. Thanks very much,
