Double eagle gussets question
« on: April 05, 2020, 06:02:26 AM »
Can someone tell which line shows the correct size of the 2 front gussets of the ribs on the double eagle plans? There are 2 lines. Small or large?

I'm building an XL so I cannot answer your question with certainty, but the dashed lines of the larger gusset probably goes with the dashed line vertical that says Double Eagle. I used the larger sized gussets on all my ribs since I wanted the extra strength where the rib joins the spar.
