P-38 General Updates


P-38 General Updates

Just a quick update to share new and updated assemblies for the Wing Flaps, Centre Section Flaps, and the Horizontal Stabiliser.

This post was intended to be a detailed overview of the Wing and CS Flaps but I was keen to share progress on these main assemblies. I will revert back to the flap discussion in my next post.

An interesting point worth noting is the color coding for the Horizontal Stabiliser and Elevator. The Red ribs are exclusive to the forward Horizontal Stab area, and the Yellow Ribs are where the internal Horizontal Stab ribs and Elevator ribs share the same alignment.

For the flaps, the main surfaces shown represent the cutout in the wing ribs…the information for this is rather sketchy but more on that in my next post.

Each of these new assemblies also includes new Basic Geometry fully dimensioned drawings in DWG and PDF formats. Soon to be added to the P-38 CAD/Ordinate dataset, drop me a line for details or check out the CAD Resources tab at the top of the page.
