I'm looking for a pair of the old-style, original, wing tips for an RV8. If
anyone has a set they would like to sell, please contact me off list.

Subject: Why a hinge in the floor aft of the cooling ramp?
Maybe a dumb question, but I can't puzzle it out from the plans and manual.
Since I got my RV-8 QB fuselage I have wondered why there is a hinge between
the inside cockpit floor and outside bottom skin just aft of the cooling
ramp. There is a long hinge pin sticking out of the lower left side of the
fuselage just forward of the right gear leg. Since the hinge is buried in
between the floor and bottom skin, it does not appear to secure moving
parts. What is the hinge there for and how do you folks secure the hinge pin
(which I don't dare pull out?)

The hinge / pin hold the aft end of the cooling ramp in place.
