Subject: COZY: Chap. 5 LWS BID Tape

I sent this last week but it was apparently dropped somewhere along the
way, so this is a resend:

I put LWX and LWY stringers in last week, along with the 1 ply bid tape.
Fig 14 shows the tape on boths sides of LWX (the diagonal stringer),
apparently bridging over the electrical channel.

Later in figs 16-18, it's not apparent that the 1 ply is supposed to cross
over the channel, but there's no written documentation either way.

Am I supposed to leave the tape crossing over the channel, or should I cut
out the tape there?

On the aft side where the channel cover goes, I cut it out so that the
channel cover would fit correctly.  So my question is really about the
front side.

(Finished the 6 BID layup, the last in Chap 5, yesterday; still got the
longeron air bubble repair to do, but next weekend I'll be done with
Chapter 5....  whew!)
