Hey guys, I just discovered that both wings on my RV-12 can be moved fore and aft in relation to the fuselage by a small amount. This is with both spar pins installed. Not sure that I was actually seeing movement, I had a friend grab a wing tip and wiggle it back and forth while I observed the gap between wing and fuselage. Sure enough, the gap contracted and expanded.
I don't have the wing/fuselage rubber seal installed yet and doing so will most likely eliminate this movement, but still it doesn't give me a warm fuzzy feeling. Anyone else noticed this phenomenon?
