--> RV8-List message posted by: "Bryan Jones" <rv_8pilot@hotmail.com>
The -8 is a pretty solid design, but even so there are still area that can
be improved upon. Regarding the gear towers, Mike Stewart has come up with
a pretty workable modification for gear tower access. He's installed
removable inside covers to the tower. Check here...

Michele,
I've left mine partially open and intend to close them with the appropriate
cherry-max rivets when I'm done in there . . . soon I hope!
Good Luck,
Bob

Michele:
You're right...it'll be a recurring nuisance getting inside those gear
boxes
to, for instance, tighten the nuts holding the landing gear in place, or to
install the vent tubes and fittings.
However, I don't think that the screws will work. You'll soon be bolting
some weldments to the bottom of those gear boxes which will make removal of
the cover impossible.
High points to you for thinking ahead, but I think we just have to live
with
these things.

What has been done , with Van's blessing I think, is to cut the inboard panels
into three .Using nut plates for the center section and following the plans for
the other two.The cuts would be made one at the top of the weldment and the
second cut approximately the same distance from the top down.

If you start the access cover just below the bottom lightening hole it will
not interfere with the steel plate.

Does anyone on the list happen to have a picture of the installation of
the PSS flap position sensor switch on an RV-8. I have been pondering
just how to mount this little micro switch somewhere on the flap
actuator bar. If no pictures, maybe a good description will do it.
