How did all of you who are flying do it?

They all seem to come from the same company regardless of packaging. They are OK in that a AN3 clevis will fit in them and they are the right size. However they are pre-drilled and have a hole right accros the bend line. Opinions locally seem to be that the hole is not a problem. What has been the practice? And lastly for aileron control horns, I have seen allot of photos of single piece horns and that is allot more appealing to me than the hollow ones. Is .090 a decent thickness of steel for these, or is something thicker in order. -Scott Schreiber ________________________________ Message 6 _____________________________________ Time: 11:23:17 PM PST US From: "Catdesigns" Subject: Re: Pietenpol-List: Aileron Hinges Don't know if it's safe or not but the GN-1 plans show 0.090 4130 for the single piece aileron horn used in that design.
