Bob, I followed your notes and it worked perfectly. The flap hinges are in
such perfect shape I am not even going to replace them. But now I know how
to do it. THANKS!

Galin
Glad that I could be some help to you.
I am making progress and I think I see a glimmer of light at the end of the t
unnel. I had the engine removed, torn down and inspected. After almost 15 ye
ars of storage the only problems found were dried seals and the preservation
oil had gummed up. They are supposed to remount the engine next week. Follo
wing that I just have about 40 hours of wiring to finish.
Oh and I still have to purchase the Dynon Skyview system and all the com sys
tem but I have prepared everything for just dropping them in. I am guessing
that about 100 hours work remain before DAR inspection and first flight.
