Thanks guys for the response. Robin's method is just the ticket, however
I'm not sure how much of the tailcone structure I need to pick up, so I
don't damage anything in winds like we had all day long yesterday, here
in Vegas. If I was building the tailcone now, and things were
accessible, I would put in some serious reinforcement to carry the load,
but now as an afterthought, I think an external bracket could be made
that goes forward and bolts to the little stiffener that attaches to the
aft bulkhead. The bracket could then go down to line up with the horn,
and catch a couple of inches of the aft bulkhead along the way. Or maybe
just one that runs up and down the bulkhead a few inches is strong
enough? A bracket on both sides with retaining clips is also a good
idea.

The flash point of Aeroshell 31 is 83 degrees C. The flash point of
Aeroshell 41 is 254 degreees C. Take you pick. I seem to recall reading of
brake fires due to leaking brake fluid onto hot brakes.
I believe the cost difference is trival.
Cheers

Improved product quality helps in the overall build. Getting rid of
H-5606 and upgrading hydraulic fluid is another Manufacturer decision.
Great call Wayne.

instead of Van's supplied 3003-O. My 3003-O went in with my aluminum hvac
scrap.
5052 has nearly twice the fatigue and tensile strength. 5052-O is used on
certified aircraft for a reason. As noted above it flares much nicer.
I used Bonaco flex hoses at the pedals and down the gear legs.

After seeing brake fluid fires, I do not recommend H-5606. Then again
working with Skydrol (phosphate ester), I won't chose that either. Tim
posted sources for 1 gallon cans of Aeroshell 41. It can make all the
difference in a better day with composite wheel pants in close proximity
to the heat and fuel.
