A friend of mine has a stripped fastener at the wing fairing. The screw that is located right where the fairing jogs outboard. He is not the builder and has asked me to help / complete a repair. Before I headed off on a 400 mile journey to his house I would like to get an idea of this anchor nut replacement. I have been told that access is limited.
It would be helpful if someone could post a picture of this area from the RV-8 plans or an photo from their aircraft without the fairing installed. I see my options as replacing the anchor nut or remove it and install a rivnut. The former is preferable but without knowing what the access is like it is hard to develop a plan.
Thank you for your help.
