OK John -

Any specific recommendations as to adhesives? We used the kit hysol and
some flox mixed in. We also put a rivet on each end of the hinge on the
elevator trims tab.

Thanks,

John Schroeder

> We recommend riveting or screwing our hinges at each end where the loads are high (landing gear doors, cowl attach etc) to avoid the peel risk he speaks of. We also advise using a high peel strength adhesive -  Hysol 9339 is the material many of us know about because it came with our Lancair kits.  However there are many more choices and brands that result in a peel strength of 50 lbs per sq inch. or greater (our recommended minimum for Carbinge.)
