Hi Gang:
This photo was taken of my FS and one man bivy tent, affectionately
referred to as my "body bag", at Sun and Fun 1988, 18 years ago.
About as close to barn storming as I could get back then.

Kip:
Got to look a little closer. I believe 4130 streamline struts were
already in place. I do remember the first two things we changed on
the original FS was gear legs and lift struts. We went to .090 wall
4130 X 1" and heat treated to 42 Rockwell. I got the Rockwell number
from Maxair. Experience dictated harder heat treating and larger
diameter legs the next year.
Still using the same material and numbers for the gear legs on my
mkIII.
