REFLECTOR: Wing attach bolt holes...

[Keith Hallsten]

Matt,

 

My fingers won’t fit in a 2” hole holding a ½” bolt or nut, either.  Plan to
use a socket wrench to hold the bolt or nut!  I would stick with the plans
dimensions and deal with the occasional minor annoyance of wrenching.  There
are inevitably many fasteners on airplanes that are hard to reach (ever
change a vacuum pump?).  That’s part of the challenge!

I am cutting the holes on the wings for the wing attach points.  The book
says 2 inch diameter holes.  My fingers won't fit. Is 2.5 inch ok? Or is
there an issue with wing structure?
