Slime is a tire sealant used in bike tires, normally just squirted into the
tube and then aired up. Available at bike shops, and I have seen it at the
local mart marts in the bike accessories.

I used similar stuff -- not sure what the real name is, but electricians
call it "yellow snot". It's used to lube wires when they get pulled through
conduit .

| Subject: | Rigging elevator? |
I'm working on rigging the elevator and have a couple of questions:
1) Why do the elevator cables have their turnbuckles in the middle of the
cable? Why not at the end near the bellcrank? It seems like there would be
less places for the cable to fail.
2) Is there an up and down stop that the up elevator hits? I can see
anywhere it is going to stop.

| Subject: | Horizontal Stab Position |
Art,
I just discovered that I put that "L" (rear most part of top skin) shown on
sheet 7F4 in the wrong direction. My elevator horn hits that before I get
the full down deflection. I may move it a smidge forward and use it as the
deflection stop.

Once again, the Matronics List guys come through. I was about to do a
bonehead thing and start modifying the elevator horn, but you guys advised
against it based on experience. You are right.
I talked to Roger at ZAC and it is normal to have to trim the "L" angle at
the top rear Fuselage to allow enough movement to get the down angle
correct. I'm going to work to the minimum down angle also.
Thanks guys for your quick responses. I was in a really bad place there for
a day or two, and some of the same bad words that BokKat found in his shop
turned up in mine. They must come with the kit.
