Undercarriage covers




Four identical covers are supplied. Two get trimmed as shown and bonded in position to act as the rim for the anchor nuts. The other two are the actual covers. After suitably roughening the bond area I applied a fairly stiff flox mix and positioned the cutout cover. I then applied tape to the edge of the actual cover (as release) and used it to hold the trimmed cover during bonding. Push the whole lot in just far enough to make the cover flush with the aircraft skin.
