13.6.3 Non-structural Installation to Airframe
Internal Non-structural Installation
Figure 13-28 and Figure 13-29 show examples of under the fabric skin non-structural mounting of the
antenna to the airframe of a tube-and-fabric aircraft.
In Figure 13-28, a bracket is made to attach to the airframe, just under the fabric for a teardrop antenna
installation. The doubler plate and mounting hardware described in the generic installation
(Section
13.6.1) are used with the bracket as the antenna mounting surface. In Figure 13-29, a similar case is shown
using the generic installation of the ARINC 743 footprint antenna. The doubler plate is optional for this
type of installation with either the Teardrop or the ARINC 743 antenna.
