Ahoj vespolek,

Here spring weather 20 °. A storm front is formed in the afternoon, I go fast in the garden with the Nitra to shoot few pics, but the sun has shown very briefly and timidly, then half an hour storm was dissipated

Please, someone could tell me in Czech language equivalent of the words "rib stitching"

rib stitching is that > http://www.supercubproject.com/Taliafer ... 0wing.html

because I would do some research for the Nitra with the right keyword in Czech.
Americain method has invisible knots and french with the knots exterior, maybe for a Czechoslovak glider there is different method? Maybe someone has link or sketch of "rib stitching" for Czechoslovak glider

thanks for help

Hi Vincent,

czech equivalent is "šití potahu" "přišívání potahu" I hope.

If you wait until Sunday, I will scan for you part of aircraft building manual from 1926 with some sketch.

Ahoj Jan,

I found nothing with google images with these words, maybe if I add "rib wing" what are the words?

Yes of course I can wait your scan, thanks

"rib stitching" ;"rib wing" what are the words?

Rib - czech žebro - slovak rebro
Stitching - czech šiťí; přišívání - slovak šitie, prišívanie
Wing - czech křídlo - slovak krídlo

Hľadal som a ani ja som na túto tému fotky nenašiel.

Thanks, but I find nothing with these words. Surely there is a specific technic aeronautic word?

[valajda]

I have found also nothing in the web. I have surely something in the book or I can ask Mr. Sezemský next week. He is a builder of replicas 1:1 (www.avia.vyrobce.cz).

Ahoj Jan,
In your book, please can you see too, if you have something about stitching of the trailing edge, like this http://www.collectors-edition.de/Fokker ... 2/3964.jpg
Děkuji
