Fergus,
Further to the other replies that you have had which suggest lining the
supporting medium with carpet, the trouble with carpet is that it absorbs
water if you have to trail in the rain. I now use polypropylene belt with
synthetic leather sleeve over the top. I still get a slight mark on the wing
but it is relatively easy to remove.

To jeff Roberts, Jeff -Baby blue, Kim, Raimo and Bob,
Thanks for having taken the time to save my wings. I'm going out to
find the carpeting that fits the bill today. Think I'll slide a plate of
polyethylene next the wings, and force the clamps out a bit. Also, I found
Raimo's solution to be ideal - rub out black rubber with a rubber
eraser....... Once again, the net pays great dividends!
Cheers, Ferg

the time with the others to solve my problem.

Ferg-
I have gone a little differrent route. I placed the wings vertically (TE down)
and covered about 10 inches of the LE and down about 24 inches with plastic.
I then took 4 plies of uni about 8 inches X 48 inches and laid them over the
LE to use it like a mold. I added plastic on the outside of it and taped it to
assure that the UNI held fast to the shape of the wing. After cure, I cut it
into two pieces 4 X 48 and used them to outline the shape of the wing on plywood.
I made up two pieces from plywood and glued the UNI forms into them. I
line the UNI with bubble wrap to transport the wings and it seems to work very
well. For those who are having trouble with rubber getting onto your wings,
the bubble wrap may ge a good solution. It is very inexpensive and can be used
several times.

Yes, i had the nuts welded to the washers, result is that the friction points are
between the nylon washers and the lever. Original design slips between metal
washers and nuts. So far, 135 hrs, no need to adjust.

Hi! All
Only slightly "off topic", yes sure enough reg No. N714GZ is in my log
book
! It is interesting to see the attitude of the law in the USA
....compared
to what it would be here in the UK !!!!!!!!!!!!!!! It is also
interesting
to see that the aircraft has survived probably thousands of hours whilst
being abused by many training pilots at Ormond Beach Training School.
Like a
trip back in time, what ?
Regards
Bob H G-PTAG

Hi Bob,
I was sent this link today, it is one of the E-Mails that is circling
around
at work just now. I recognised the registration as one of the old
Cessnas
that I have flown on a few occasions, it may be in your log book also!
Best regards,
John.
PS, say hi to Jan from me please!
