I have looked around quite a bit and haven't found a whole lot of pictures on the internet. Trailing edge material is sold by ACS. Rib flange top and bottom is ion the left hand side of the picture.
It looks like I will need to clearance the top and bottom of the trailing edge stock where the ribs contact it. The aluminum rib angles will be secured to the trailing edge by two 3/32 Avex rivets top and bottom.
Is this a good way to do this (clearance cut)? Is it done like this in the industry? What are some other ways to do it?
By cutting it I am loosing some strength from the bend where the rig angles meet the trailing edge. Not sure how to proceed with this. Any help is welcome.
