Van SHOULD HAVE formed a little joggle in the aft portion of this outboard flat baggage rib so that it could attach to the bulkhead!
It is certainly a carryover from one of those old fashioned -6 kits, I am sure!
The plans call for 0.032" stuff, but the edge distance is marginal at best!
I pumped up the volume a bit and fabbed mine out of 0.063" stock just to make me feel all warm and fuzzy.
As you can see, I also had to countersink the holes instead of dimpling them.
You may want to do this too.
Chad, this is what I called you about this AM when you were flying.
Hope this helps!
CJ
