Hi builders!

Thanks for the inputs on the flap hinge! I'll go for the split-pin metod then!

Another one:
I'm thinking towards intstalling wires in the wings also, and saw a builder on the net who'd installed a small PVC-tube in the wings.
It made room for several wires (landing light, posn light, antenna etc)

Anyone else have done this?
It seems to me like a good idea??
Specially if I also put a light line in there so I can replace or add thing later.

Thoughts anyone??

Best regards Alf Olav Frog / Norway

Hi Alf,

I did this on mine. I used lawn irrigatoin tubing, which is very light, is
thin walled and should last a long time. It was cheap too. The other thing
to look out for is that the OD matches a hole cutter size you have. The
irrigation tubing was exactly 3/4" OD. I'm not sure how that will work out
for you in Norway though, everything being metric there, and I'm not so sure
about the availability of such tubing there either. Here, it's readily
available at any hardware store. See it at www.4sierratango.com/wings2.htm
