    From: "Yellowhammer" <coyler@sthpk-12.net>
    Greetings Folks, Read an ad for a Pulsar Kit number 1 for sale and it said it had a beefed up fuselage. Was just curious as to how folks are beefing up their fuselages or if anyone has beefed up other parts of their planes. If so, what did you do to make it stronger? Thanks, Yellowhammer -------- J.M. Oyler &quot;Clyde&quot; Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=498687#498687

    I=99ve built in a couple of hard points to accommodate an over-the-sh oulder angle for the safety harness and a couple to allow removal of the seat back. The technique is similar to the one used to install the engine mounts. The main difference is that the engine mounts transfer load directly to the embedded unidirectional glass. What that means to me, an amateur builder, is that my mods need to be conservative - in terms of structural integrity. Because these mods were important to me, I paid the penalty of a slight weight hit in order to beef that structure up. My advice would be to build the plane exactly as it was designed. If there =99s a standard feature you just can=99t live with, seek the advice of an experienced builder before even contemplating a change.
