Default Nimbus 2c wing templates


Hello
Here http://www.appledor.net/tsillas/soaring/pikt7/pikt7.htm you can
find corrected numbers for the FX-67-170/150. They are from Pik-20 but
I would imagine that they are usable also for the Nimbus.
regards Matts


Hi

I am part owner of a Nimbus 2c (Alice in Wonderland - see
http://www.hart.wattle.id.au/alice) and we want to reprofile her wings
as she has acquired a definite 'lump' on the upper surface of the wing.

We are looking for either a set of templates/guides (located here in
Australia of course) or alternatively, the data we need to allow us to
get a set of templates/guides laser cut.

Our local expert tells us we need only the front 1/3 of the wing section
and the first template should be at about 300mm from the wing root and
then at 1m centres outward to the tip.

We've had a look on the Schempp Hirth web site for this data, but can't
find it.

I'm hoping that someone here can provide it - or else the information
that would allow me (with the aid of a spread sheet) to generate the
data needed.

Tks

Robert
