    Default Fabric reinforcement plate install

    On the front plate installation, does the plate go to the outside (front) or towards the inside?

    Hi Patrick,

    Could you provide a little more info as to which plate/location you are interested in......otherwise I have some concerns I might make an incorrect assumption about what you need/which part is in discussion.

    This would be the front plate(leading edge side) , basically it makes a "c " or hook per say, which way does the longer part go towards the leading edge or trailing, hard to explain! Hope this helps, 402 750 8916 is my #.

    The trailing edge. Assuming your talking about the reinforcement plate on the front spar bracket. The plate gets glued to the inside of the fabric.

    Thanks Airfox, thats what I need, And It looks like I have some work to do. I have the plate already installed (incorrectly), with the top fabric installed also.
