    Subject: Alternate way to Attach RV-8 Skirt to Canopy Frame Suggestion
    It is time for us to attach the skirt to the canopy frame where the plans call for pop rivets. Is there a preferred or alternate choice to pop rivets (we hope)? Something like epoxy that has been proven to work? Thanks, Robin

    I need some recommendations as to the best way to elevate my completed RV7 fuselage so that I can align the gear leg fairings. The weight should be around 600lb. Is there a better way than jack stands under the center section and weighting the tail? Thanks! Wade Roe RV7 in the final stretch

    Hi Robin=2C We used the same adhensive that Christian Eagle uses on our 8A. The complet e details with product info are in the archives. The RV was hangered in CT and flown on a regular basis through out the year over nine years - No cra cks and no change in the seal. Hope this helps - Keep at it - it's really worth the effort!

    How did you get the fuselage on the saw horses? Did you elevate the tail then physically lift on side at a time and insert the horses?

    I rigged a motorcycle jack under the center section. That worked well for me.

    Hey gents, I am at the same spot. Have been considering sikaflex (how I did the canopy) and 3M 5200. Where in the archives would I find this information?

    From: thomas sargent <sarg314@gmail.com>
    I am starting to work on a test plan which the FAA wants you to have by the time you get an airworthiness certificate. Are there any samples of these of these available on the web anywhere? Does any one have one they would be willing to divulge? -- Tom Sargent, RV-6A.

    Transmission jack works really nice for that but you still have to tie the tail down.
