I stared at this for over an hour going back and forth between the drawings, written directions and the actual left flap. Here's a photo. http://www.n212s.com/images/rv-7_qb_flaps.jpg
It looks like the inboard flap skin is way too long. The directions state some trimming will be needed when the wings are mated (doing that on Sat..... I hope) but this looks nothing like other flap photos I've seen around the web. These are QB flaps and supposed to be ready to go except for the hinges. I've started thinking they sent the wrong flaps. The right one is the same way. Not sure I could trim this back anyway. The final rib and rivet line seems too far inboard compared to other 7's I've seen.
Any input would be appreciated....
thx,
