Jon,
See attached photo - no buttrib covering onN128DD - just made some aluminum parts to cover the front and back core hole in the first wing rib and used a plexi sheet for the center over the site gauge. Then fabricated some aluminum to fit outboard and on the bottom of the buttrib to close off the pneumonia hole.
I rather like being able to see the sight gauges. Also no BR covering makes the door hinge bolts easily accessible.
Take a look at the cockpit video shot on John's web Site - no buttrib covering either.
Sincerely,
Dave S
