<DIV><FONT face=Arial>Also FWIW I changed this method on the next build and
did not use the rear hold down bolts. I used a couple CF dowels at the rear of
the pan that fit into the fuse. </FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Allrighty- here's a question for the creative
types... My new Icepoint, truly a VERY high quality PARF, has the one
piece wing (big, straight, light, well-covered), and it is covered with a
REALLY long one-piece belly-pan/chin cowl that goes from the spinner face
to the wing t.e.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2> It is supposed to be held
on with ten, 2mm screws....Since the wing/pipe has to come off every
flying session, that's a LOT of screwing around with...</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>ANYONE have any ideas for alternates?
Have considered the BVM 'canopy hooks', but not enough surface to grab
everything properly. I have about a 1/4" tall lip to hold onto from
the pan.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Please - no "That's why you buy plug-in
wings, Bob" answers....</FONT></DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>
