Doesn't appear as if there are inspection access points typically installed.

From: "Ruhnke, Mike" --> Tailwind-List message posted by: "Ruhnke, Mike" The paperwork says, "cut the inspection ports into the wing only if you suspect that you need to be looking inside".

It was the best vacation I've had in years. I made it home Friday @10:45am, 2hrs 30min flying time. I sure am thankful for the FSS station on the field. Without the briefing I would not have set out to go home Friday morning but it looked like it was clearing along the way. Sure enough I made it home without one rain drop. Jim I fixed the sticky elevator and ailerons over the weekend. I removed the paint from the torque tube and replaced the black nylon bushings in the end of the flap tube. Boy what a difference. I will try it out the end of the week after it stops raining. Thanks again to all who participated and will be happy to help with what I can for next year. Also keep Moldy on the straight and narrow.
