Build an Alpina 4001
« on: August 21, 2024, 03:38:21 AM »
Hi Guys
I am building/finishing an old Alpina 4001 and need a bit of help on installing the wing mounting bracket in the fuzz.Any one on here done it before? This is the blade type with the brass box in the fuzz.The instructions i have limited on the install. EG i presume they Extend into the side of the fuzz.
Any help appreciated
Cheers.

Fred

Welcome to the forum :)

Back from holidays, but if your Alpina use the blade type, I don't think it's a 4001.
The 4001 use the floating keys if I recall.

Anyway, I can take photos of my old one, correct, they do extend to the fuselage wing root, at an angle (dihedral).
I post photos in a bit
