Pietenpol-List: Cross bracing on a GN-1

Post by matronics »

Original Posted By: Michael D Cuy
I bought a GN-1 last fall. I have only flown it about 3 hours (it neededsome engine work and some other small things). The plane has about 60 hourstotal on it. Recently when doing an inspection, I realized that the crossbracing between the lift struts on the right hand side of the passengercockpit was missing. Further inspection revealed that it had never beeninstalled. I have looked at the plans and they do not seem to indicatethese. Question: Is this an optional item or do I need to place the crossbracing before further flights?Many thanks for any information that the group can provide,Jon Botsford________________________________________________________________________________Date: Thu, 20 Feb 2003 09:41:59 -0500
