Tom,

 

This is a dangerous post!!!!

 

Someone new builder is going to believe this. Then there will be the inevitable fatal accident, and finally FOX news will report that it was your brilliant idea to reduce the maintenance time !!!

Subject: [LML] Legacy maintenance idea

 

Posted:  April 1,2010
 
While working on my Legacy kit it occurred to me that once it's flying inspection

and maintenance of the main gear would be so much easier if the stub wing skin

could be removed.  I attached a hinge to the leading edge so that the skin could be 
opened as shown in the picture.  Now I'm trying to decide what sort of fasteners

I should use on the trailing edge.  Any suggestions?
