RE: Wiring past the spar …fixnflyguy reply
The RV-4 has room to do so at the stick torque tube pass through. I'm thinking the Rocket would have identical set up. I made sure the wire harness is secured on either side to prevent fowling of the torque tube, and there is plenty of room. No need to engineer additional cut-outs in the spar web.

Upper gear leg fairing - how to get a replacement?
After my last flight I'm missing half of the upper leg fairing :confused: Looking through the plans, I can't find this particular part. Is this something the builder would have made or possibly bought from someone other than Vans?

Wiring past the spar
Lots of ways to do this; however, anyone go through the spare web? Seems like some good candidate locations. Yes I'm aware of the consequences if the wings need to be pulled. Please share your approach here. Much appreciated.
