      Thanks, Paul and Lynn. Indeed, velcro needs something that can bend to peel it
      off. Hose clamps seem a good idea too, Lynn. What I wanted to make sure is that
      there is no structural weakness induced by making a simpler attachment than
      those multitude of tiny screws I have.
      I thought about velcro, Paul, because the guy who built my Kitfox in 1992 was very
      fond of it and used it extensively to attach the seat covers, etc.
      
      Thanks again, guys!
      Cheers,
      
      Michel

      >I reached down and grabbed a handful of  flaps,
      additional flaps were only available  because I don't normally use full 
      flaps,
      and  we jumped off the ground. Without that move I think I would have  
      ripped
      off the gear again, but instead we  jumped off the ground immediately.<
      
      Jeff ,
        This is a technique I used to use on occasion in a Piper Tri Pacer I  
      used to own. The most memorable was when taking off on a short island  in the 
      middle of a lake in California. Just prior to hitting the water I popped  the 
      flaps down,my passenger screamed, and we were flying....tis a good 
      procedure  and works well !

      Ahh, the mighty Tripacer! A 1953 version was the family queen ship; I got my private
      in it, 37 years ago it pains me to admit. Like the Kitfox, I think it was
      a good design that offers a lot of value for the buck. What does that say about
      you and me? I prefer the term "frugal". JRD
