Hi,
I cut all of the R-915 rudder stiffeners and went to match the holes in the R-915's to the rudder skins (R-901R and R-901L). The holes don't match up, it seems that each hole center is off by about .040" so the error stacks up and if I cleco the fore hole the aft is at least .25" or so off!!! Seems like it might be a CNC error? I just received the kit in December. Does anyone have any ideas of why this might be? The temperature difference of the parts when they were drilled? Maybe it was a bad day for the CNC machine, hopefully its the stiffener holes that are off, not the skin.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
