What species of wood is used as a standard for strength properties of other species of wood used in aircraft structures? - Spruce Is northern white pine an acceptable substitute for sprues? - Yes, but only if the pine is a larger size to make up for its low strength Are knots allowed an aircraft wood? - Knots are allowed within limitations. It depends on the type of knot, location, spacing, and number of knots What type of wood quality must be used to repair aircraft structures? - The wood...

Define "clearance" as used in aircraft drawings. - dimension given for the space between parts What is a fuselage station number? - distance from the datum in inches along longitudinal axis. What information is given in the title block of a blueprint? - Drawing number, name of part, scale, date, firm, draftsman name, checker and approving official. Where is the title block usually found on an aircraft drawing? - lower right corner Why are the dimensions used, and how are they shown on the...
