Subject: | Engine Cowl Fasteners |
I've got 70 hours on my 9A and I am convinced the side hinges between
the upper and lower cowl have to go. I'm planning on converting these
over to Camloc 4002 series and wonder what thickness sheet aluminum
should be used to fasten the receptacles to. I realize Aircraft Spruce
offers kits to do this but I rather make it myself. Has anyone done this
and do you recommend .043, .050 or .063?
Steve

Why are you going to change them out, if I may ask?

Hello Steve:
I laid a bet with a friend of mine Ill finished the removal of both cowlings in
less than
a minute. Guess what? I won. And must tell you: My -9A has a three blade Catto
prop.
Its very, very easy removal 6 piano wires. I believe it is easier than remove the
cam
locks system.
The cowlings is tied together every milimeter and tight.
Think about it.
