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 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.

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.
