Study Notes

Wing Structure

Each wing panel is constructed entirely of metal, using a semi-monocoque design.
The wings are designed with a cantilever structure, meaning they are self-supporting and do not rely on external bracing.
The wing tips and access panels are removable for maintenance and inspection.
Each wing is equipped with several essential components, including the aileron, flap, main landing gear, and powerplant.

Fuel Tank

Each engine nacelle contains a bladder-type fuel tank with a capacity of 54 U.S. gallons.
The total fuel capacity for both wings is 108 U.S. gallons.

Wing Attachment

The wings are attached to the fuselage by securing the main spars into a spar box carry-through.
The spar box is an integral part of the fuselage structure, creating a continuous main spar with splices at each side of the fuselage.
Additional attachments are provided at the front and rear spars, ensuring a secure connection between the wings and fuselage.
