I used them and you should, to make up for the material that is lost when drilling
the holes for the hinges.

Hi John, you may want to consider slightly thicker ply if you have to drill larger
holes than the plans call for, to use the aircraft hardware.

>The plans show a 1/8" ply where the hinges go. That's with the hinges shown on
the plans. Do I still need them with eye bolts using a large washer?

My airplane, NX41CC, wears those tail numbers but the "X" does not appear in the
FAA records and ATC does not want to hear any "November Xray four-one-Charlie-Charlie"
from me. My 2-place Air Camper is not required to display the word
'EXPERIMENTAL" near the passenger cockpit as a result of having the "X" in the
registration markings.

I think it's a good idea to include the ply because (1) the plans show it, and
(2) in the event of tail surface flutter, however unlikely it is, it's nice to
know that there is some additional load transfer area between the control surface
hinges and the spars that carry those loads.
Oh, and it lets the plywood take the direct bearing forces of the washer and nut,
leaving the underlying spar material un-compressed.
