The cables for the rear wheel come through this hole. It is basically a hole in the fabrick Simply framed in with wood thick enough to run screws into. NO FRAME IS TAKEN OUT. Two pieces of frame cross the open area, one directly across the other diagonal. I can basically stick my head in one hole and my arm in another. Makes access to the rear much easier. I covered it with very thin aluminium flashing from the aviation department at Lowes. This flashing came painted white and in a roll about 20 yards long and 24 inches wide. It will cut with sturdy scissors or I used a sharp knife and a straight edge. It creases easily. It was cheap enough that I used it to practice with and make the first bad template and then made the second that I used. I covered the. Poor photos attached. Please ignore the temporary pulley. It was replaced with a fairlead.

I always have better ideas later. My access cover is made with a sheets of thin aluminum riveted and with fairings creased in for the tailwheel cables. At some later date after is is test flown or maybe at next years condition inspection, I will put a single sheet on with longer and prettier fairings. Simpler too. To reiterate. You are simply replacing cloth with a cover. Perhaps saran wrap will do. Or zippers! LOL. Stay light my friend.
