We finally received specific torque values from the OEM...235-265 in-lb torque.

It is not a military C130 but rather a civilian L100-30. We have resolved this particular issue but getting a copy of TO 1-1A-8 would be nice... :) Phil

The hard copy of SAE AS 870 is available ($72.68) from IHS but I don't really have time to order it. The cost is not so much the issue... Phil

FYI I realize that torque specs are part of the joint design but I guess I'm wondering if there is any relevant reference that may help. A stab in the dark I know...! BTW if there are any c130 folks out there, this relates to the Main Landing Gear Beam to Drag Angle connection (STA577...

I have a combination of the following bolt & nut (also some washers): Bolt MS21250-05016 Nut H55LH4367-054 I have no direction in the SRM regarding the torque. While I have requested confirmation from the aircraft manufacturer, in the mean time I am trying to chase down something that can be...

I managed it using a macro from here... http://solidmentor.com/modules/wiwimod/index.php?page=NewPointCloudMacro Then in the resulting 3D sketch, insert a continuous line around the perimeter. Then using the Surface Fill feature, and scaling 25:1 on the Z-axis. you can really see the crown...

I have never used macros in SW before. How would I apply this to my file? Phil

I am running SW Office 2007 SP0.0. I have a spreadsheet containing elevation data from an airport runway. The data is from a survey which took elevation measurements on a 3 meter grid. This particular runway has some serious dips in it that I would like to show graphically. I had hoped to...

Are there any FAA DER's delegated to sign off aerodynamic? We have an FAA structures DER working on a B737 Upper wing surface repair, and need an aerodynamic signoff. Any suggestions? PhilLee

Also got a copy of the applicable section from Rev D from another source. Phil

RPstress, rec'd fax... thanks, Phil

Wil Taylor, I have confirmed that a paper copy of Rev D is available from IHS ($247). RPstress, If you could fax the pages to 613-254-6339 that would be greatly appreciated. Phil

There was an old thread on this subject (thread2-127095)... I need the material properties, allowables for Aluminum Alloy 7178-T6511. Does anyone have them? As mentioned in the old thread, apparently MIL-HDBK-5 rev D had them but I cannot get my hands on it. I have Rev J, as well as...

How about a B737 and ATR42? thanks, Phil

ok I'm back... Using the Curve Driven Brush as a reference I have succesfully made the helix, 3D sketch, and then used the Curve Driven Pattern Feature to get 5 holes to follow the helical spline in the 3D sketch at a 0.5" spacing. The propblem now is that the holes (cuts) are not rotating as...
