Makhpiyaluta,
the Replicraft plans are an OAW plane, so I am not sure if it is like the Fokker design, but the opening on the outside rib has to be large enough for the two shafts that hold the bungee cord, as they stick out of the rib on this design ...

also, the drawing you sent me is similar to what is on the plans, except the top of the fairing has a strip that makes the two stringers on the top slightly above the aluminum box...

This is where my question is ... the stringer on the top, and two bottom stringers cannot get around the metal work that holds the axle. The two peices of ply that run along the top and bottom that hold the shape of the skin are cut at the landing gear legs.
