Rear Bulkhead Holes
Discussion
I've been poring over the build CD and can't seem to locate any layout details for the handbrake cable and shift rod (G50 center) holes in the rear bulkhead. I'm looking for size and location for all three holes (six, if you count the matching penetrations of the double skin).
Have I missed them somewhere?

There don't appear to be any dimensions but on the CD go to photos/001alloypanel/108A. If you know that rivets are 30mm apart then you can work out the dimensions from the photo.
Make the hole size to suit the grommets you are using but remember the grommet OD is bigger than the hole so don't position the hole too low or the grommet will jam against the chassis tube between the double skin.

Thanks, Steve.Make the hole size to suit the grommets you are using but remember the grommet OD is bigger than the hole so don't position the hole too low or the grommet will jam against the chassis tube between the double skin.

I've been eyeing that photo and working myself up to do as you suggest, but was hoping that precise measurements were listed somewhere I'd overlooked. Too much time spent building airplanes with full sets of plans and not enough time just "making it work"…
