Steve:
Do this one when your wings are on for the trial fitting. Clamp the bracket
in a vise and whack it with a hammer and see if it fits, If not, whack it
again. The band will occur in the area away from the corner and all it needs
is a small amount of bend.

I also was able to move them nicely with a very large adjustable cressent wrench
(if they have those by that name in England...) You just hold in a vice and
lean on the wrench.

There is another RV-9A builder here in Yuma that has left his forward side
skins off far later in the building stage than the manual calls for. They
are ready to rivet and he plans to take care not to wait too long. His is
working on the wiring, panel, and rudder pedals and I am amazed how much
easier it makes all of those tasks. I wish I had done the same.

Additional whacking did NOT work! I think larger tools are needed. An excuse
to fly over to my local maint shop. A cressent wrench!? If we have them I
don't know them by that name, but I can guess. The problem is the brackets
are made of aluminium when they get here.
Thanks Andy! Steve.
PS I mounted the first flap since I could not bend the brackets. How far off
the underside of the fuse should it be in the 'up ' position? I could not
find this specified.

Northern Products catalog carries the automatic compressor sump drains. You
should be able to find these from most places that carry large compressors.
They replace the standard drain valve. I think I paid about $5, but that was
about 10 years ago, so they're probably $500 now ;

You have to start from the rear holes on each and cut of the front. The hole
spacing is the same starting from the rear of the stiffner (note the rear is
the one with the most taper as indicated by the half hole on the side
without the rivet holes about 5" from the cut marks.

Hey, I like that even better! The problem with my automatic drain valve is
that I never turn the compressor off, so it hardly ever drains automatically.
I end up crawing under it and draining it manually. A cable-operated one would
be nice. You still have to dump the nasty stuff in a can, but any improvement
is welcome. Ironically, all this macho talk about my compressor must have had
something to do with its failure this weekend! I think my motor needs a new
startup capacitor. I have to give it a nudge with a stick to get it going.
Then again, the same could be said about a lot of us!

I tried an automatic drain valve on my shop compressor, but one morning I
found the pipe nipple attaching it to the bottom of the storage tank was
broken, and the compressor had run most of the night.
I replaced it with a simple ball valve and piped the drain line to the
outside of the shop.
I manually blow it down every few days.
