Quick dimension question

[JBarsness]

Good Evening VAF!

I am looking at a hangar rental option for my RV-10 (still under construction). It’s an older hangar that has a post to the side that would clear the horizontal stabilizer tip but not the wing. I’m concerned about the clearance between the trailing edge of the wing and this post when the door is closed.

Can anyone take a measurement from the tip of your spinner to the trailing edge of the wing on your RV-10 and tell me that distance?I need to move quickly on this so any help you can provide would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks,

JB

I can't measure the aircraft right now but from the Vans drawing 138"

Previous thread asking the same question has a reply stating 142", so may be dependant on the spinner used?

Thank you all. This particular hangar would have put a support post less than 2' from the trailing edge of the wing with the spinner less than 6" from the door. Doable, but not ideal so I passed on the hangar.

Where did you get that drawing? I'm looking for CAD drawings of the RV-10 that I get dimensions from. Thanks!
