...and you can get those from McMaster-Carr, http://www.mcmaster.com/ . On
their website, search on 'die springs' and the universe will open up to you
;o) Now is that 2" OD or ID? on the springs? My assumption is that it's
OD.
By the way, Chuck, do you have any photos or details of how you secure your
butterfly-hinged front cockpit cover when it's in place? Corky made very
nice naugahyde cockpit covers that secure in place with snaps, but they are
only for use when on the ground... they will not stay in place in flight.
I've thought about a hard cover with those twist thingies (technical term).
And how does the airplane feel and handle when you cover the front 'pit?

When the list gets quiet, while many of you travel to Pietenpol
heaven....
I'd like to wish all of you going to Brodhead a good trip! Fly safe,
burn lots of baby oil, eat lots of corn and brats, and bring home lots
of memories. There is a tinge of sadness this time of year for me
because I'd really like to join you all for the gathering and
migration!! Sadly I had to cancel this year because of other family
expenses that just didn't leave enough to pay for the trip. I wish you
all God Speed, and look forward to hearing from you participating in the
greatest fly-in ever!
Best Regards,

OK Max
Mike and I usually camp across the field in the trees. This year I am
pulling my antique 1964 Scotty camper. It is White with Turquois top.
Mike is pulling his homebuilt teardrop. We are arriving Friday night and
leaving on Sunday. I'll bring you a set.

Oscar Zuniga
Oscar,
Yep, that's 2" O.D. on the springs. I think this is a common size for die
springs.
The right half of the sheet metal cover is retained by short wood screws into
the filler strip along the top edge of the right longeron, and tinnerman nuts
under the forward edge and aft edge with sheet metal screws. The latches are
homemade for the opening left half of the cover. Piano hinge down the center
butt line zero. I think I have some detail pictures somewhere of the entire
cover. It has worked very well and reliable, staying closed during flight,
and it keeps all the wind out of the cockpit, and especially more comfortable
during the colder months. I have to remove the front windshield when I have the
cover on, and it adds a lot to aerodynamically cleaning up the airframe.
Only takes a few minutes to make the change, because of the use of tinnerman nuts.
Hey Oscar, I got the data plate from you last week - looks great !! I
haven't stamped the info on it yet, but it will be mounted in the front pit for
the
Brodhead trip !
