Inlet ramps
Catégorie: Engine : Firewall forward

Today I tackled the inlet ramps, the baffels are way to long and need to be bent to allow the lower cowl to be reinstalled.
All begin with the cutting along a guess line.



This is a view taken from the rear, the baffle is only tangent to the inlet towards the center, a bend will correct this.



The picture shows the diagonal bend (next picture is better) that lifts the outer corner of the ramp.
The vertical baffle also has to be shortened and bent to be tangent to the outer conner of the inlet.



This is the left side. A the idea was to progress slowly towards the final result so as to be on the safe side and not cut the parts too short, a lot of installations and removings where needed to get to this point.



This little bracket had to be fabricated for the left ramp.



After priming of the hidden parts, the ramps where riveted and reinstalled. Next job will be to drill and rivet the veritcal baffles to the ramps.
